To ssh without a password.

On the Client:

mkdir -p ~/.ssh
chmod 0700 ~/.ssh
ssh-keygen -t dsa -f ~/.ssh/id_dsa -P '' 

Copy ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub to the server, and append it to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys and ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2. You should then be able to ssh without a password.

Add the following to your ~/.ssh/config file:

Host * 
    ServerAliveInterval 120
    ServerAliveCountMax 3

rcs -u hosts
rcs -l hosts
ci -u hosts
co -l hosts
vi hosts
ci -u hosts
