I believe the above creates a key that will still require a password before access is granted. To create a key that requires no password, use:

ssh-keygen -P "" -t dsa

Or did I misunderstand what you're trying to do?

Your version explicitly sets the key password to a null length. My version has the same result, i just hit enter when prompted to provide the password when the key is originally created.
