Hi,

This might seem a stupid question but I often see people recommending that 
you never log into SSH with password but rather use keys.

Doesn't this create a security issue as if someone manages to break into one 
computer you own they can simply SSH straight into the other systems without 
passwords using the keys stored on that computer?

At least if you are using passwords they need to work out the other 
computer's passwords before they can SSH into them?
