Re: Secure Shell copy

Hi,

try creating a rsa keypair with ssh-keygen and empty passphrase for each station. After that you copy the public ones to the other station and add them in $HOME/.ssh/your-public-key-file-like-identy.pub. You can now configure sshd.conf to accept rsa-connections too. But beware, anyone who's got your account on the one machine gets it one the 2nd too without password. I haven't try it out but it should work.
