Hi,

All is in the man pages!

For real password-less (even for the private key, it's *bad*), try this:

  $ ssh-keygen -f test -t dsa
  (enter no passphrase, just press enter twice)
  $ cat test.pub | ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] "mkdir -p .ssh ; cat 
>>.ssh/authorized_keys"
  (here it will ask for password)
  $ ssh -i test [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  (here it will not anymore)

But beware about security issues!
This example is a very bad one if you care about security!

A better aproach is to use ssh-agent to store your keys in your environment.
But here again, be carefull because it means *any* "bad" program you launch
may use your keys (and known_hosts to know where to go) to do something bad.
Any "good" Linux virus would probably try this first...

Regards, J.C.
