1. Make sure that your /etc/ssh/sshd_config has the following lines: HostbasedAuthentication yes IgnoreRhosts yes IgnoreUserKnownHosts yes 2. Put the names of the remote hosts in /etc/ssh/shosts.equiv (don't use /etc/hosts.equiv, that will allow rlogin and rsh without passwords). 3. Copy the public key (found in /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key.pub) with its host name of the remote hosts into /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts (See the sshd man page).
