You need to copy your public key from the 'sending' machine to the
~/.ssh/known_hosts file of the 'receiving' machine. This was discussed here
a while back. A search of the archives should turn up more information for
you.

Subject: Re: Having problem getting rcp to work / switching to scp but
need help to suppress pwd prompt
Thanks Charles (and others)
That's what I ended up spending my Sunday night on :-)
Got scp working but have not been able to suppress the requirement for a
password at each scp.
As I'm planning to run scp periodically unattended, I need to do it without
user input. I've tried some different settings in sshd_conf on the
'receiving' RH7 server, but havn't hit on the right one yet.
If anyone has a scripted scp session and is willing to share, I'd sure
appreciated it.
Or simply a sample configuration.
TIA - Heinz
