In order to SSH to other systems without authentication, you must enable this feature on the server on /etc/ssh/sshd_config
PubkeyAuthentication yes
In addition, generate you public/private key par on the client
client# ssh-keygen
Now copy the public key to the server using:
client# scp ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub user@server:~/.ssh/authorized_keys
The command below also automates this process above
client# ssh-copy-id user@server
