1. Create a public ssh key, if you haven�t one already.

Look at ~/.ssh. If you see a file named id_dsa.pub then you obviously already have
a public key. If not, simply create one. ssh-keygen -t dsa should do the trick.

Please note that there are other types of keys, e.g. RSA instead of DSA. I simply
recomend DSA, but keep that in mind if you run into errors.
2. Make sure your .ssh dir is 700:
chmod 700 ~/.ssh
3. Get your public ssh key on the server you want to login automatically.
A simple scp ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub remoteuser@remoteserver.com: is ok.
4. Append the contents of your public key to the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys and remove
it.

Important: This must be done on the server you just copied your public key to.
Otherwise you wouldn�t have had to copy it on your server.

Simply issue something like ---

cat id_dsa.pub >> .ssh/authorized_keys while at your home directory.
5. Instead of steps 3 and 4, you can issue something like this:

cat ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub | ssh -l remoteuser remoteserver.com 'cat >>

~/.ssh/authorized_keys'
6. Remove your public key from the home directory on the server.
7. Done!
You can now login:

ssh -l remoteuser remoteserver.com or ssh remoteuser@remoteserver.com

without getting asked for a password.
