ssh without password




Hi everybody,

I am puzzled by the following: I have RH7.1 computers with
openssh-2.5.2p2-5. I generated keys (both RSA and DSA) as a user
on both, and exchanged them (~/.ssh/authorized_keys{,2} etc),
with empty passphrases.

I expect to be able to log on from one computer to another
without being prompted for a password (so says the man page), but I am
still prompted.  Toggling PasswordAuthentication in
/etc/ssh/ssh{d,}_config does not affect things. /etc/ssh/shosts.equiv
doesn't help either. Can anyone enlighten me?

To clarify: authentication works fine, I log on in both directions.
It's the password prompt that annoys me.

Thanks,
