You will need to set up key authorization, such that you can log into the 
remote computer without being prompted for a password, or use .rhost file 
which is not recommended since anyone can fake your IP#.

Subject:        ssh/scp login wothout password

hello list,

i have an annoying beginner question:

i want to use ssh / scp without using a password


i tried this:

scenario:


user [EMAIL PROTECTED]      user [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ssh-keygen
             ...
             scp ~/.ssh/identity.pub [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/.ssh/auhtorized_keys


as described in different faq's but it didn't work for me.
the command:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ssh -l ab machine.bbbb.com

always asks for the password of the user ab




any hints? what went wrong??


thanks in advance

achim
