SSH scrupting

[kozlow]

I have a central server, I will call A. It is my Ignite server as well as a repository for Depots and Scripts.

I am tring to run a IGNITE backup script from the clients over to A. In my script I list the files in the backup directory on A and remove old ones before I start.

example:
IGNITE backup of B
on A: /IGNITE/B
I would remsh from B to A and remove old backups before I start.

Now we are using SSH for obvious reasons. How do I open up A so I can run SSH command from B without the need to supply a password?

HP support had me turn off password verification, but that has to be done on both A and B to work. I want to keep B completely secured. I know there has to be a straight forward way....

HP has not responded in two days....

You need to set up SSH keys between the accounts that are being used on server A and server B. Take a look at this - it should get you going:
