How does one set up SSH properly without passwords?

On my local private LAN, I've got SSH running, and I've copied my
identity.pub on the local machine to the authorized_keys file on
the other, as well as setting perms on authorized_keys to 600.

Does one *REQUIRE* the .shosts file as well?  If so, what is the
exact syntax of that file (pointers to non-cryptic,
and easy to read/understand documentation are fine).

Thanks in advance.
