I'm using ssh to run the the programs located on the server on the client, But I always have to type the user password (server) so that I can log in... I don't need any security or RSA keys, so is it possible to just login to the sever with the same username as on the client and start doing things as it says in "man ssh".
I'm not able to do that in my server's /etc/ssh/ssh_config.
I just want to use protocol 1, where the client hostname is listed along with the username in /etc/ssh/shosts.equiv and there is no need for authentication. How can I achieve this? Can anyone help me?

If you don't need security, use rsh. It'll be easier and faster than SSH.

First you have to run ssh-keygen (eg
ssh-keygen -t dsa -b 4096). This creates a
couple of key files under ~/.ssh/ called
something like identity and identity.pub.
You now want to copy the public key
(identity.pub) to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys on
the PC you want to connect to. If the file
does not already exist just create it (scp
~/.ssh/identity.pub
hostname:~/.ssh/autorized_keys), otherwise
add your key to the file....the format is
one key per line.

You might want to repeat the process the
other way too (ie so you can ssh from
either pc without a password)
