I have here also key login. It's very easy.
ssh-keygen -t dsa
You got now two files id_dsa and id_dsa.pub. You put the id_dsa.pub in
~/.ssh/authorized_keys2 and id_dsa on your client in ~/.ssh/id_dsa. When
you start now ssh on the client to the remote he take the id_dsa key and
login. :-)
That's all
PS: Sorry for my bad english.
Don't forget to make sure you add the following to each respective file:
file: ssh_config add: IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_dsa
file: sshd_config add: PubkeyAuthentication yes AuthorizedKeysFile .ssh/authorized_keys
it's a good idea to add the following as well: PermitRootLogin no PasswordAuthentication no
Once you've generated the dsa key, and added these lines to the proper config file, you should be good to go.
As suggested, keep the id_dsa file encrypted, and use ssh-agent to manage it.
