I am testing login without a password for my computer laboratory here in our campus since I need it to automate the backup process. I was able to implement login without password with other computers by
#ssh-keygen -t rsa (I left the passphrase field blank)
then copying the generated key to the authorized_keys of the computer where I will login without password.
After doing these steps I had problem since the remote computer is asking for a password. Does anybody have an idea on what is happening. I think the problem is with the ssh-keygen command.
