If server do not deny this option, You can use ssh-keys to do this. Check commands: $ssh-keygen -t dsa [when it ask about password - just press enter] Its generate 2 files in ~/.ssh/ directory. Copy file id_dsa.pub to remote site to directory ~/.ssh as file: authorized_keys [chmod this 700] and when You will try connect via ssh it should check Your keys and login Your without password asking [you can have password normally set] :] John Stefani :] jstefani _at_ yorku.ca -- [][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]..
