Hi;

I need to allow auto-login(without prompting for password) from machine
'A' to machine 'B'  but  NOT from machine 'B' to machine 'A'.
This has to be done so my automatic remote backups can work over SSH
backing up machine 'B' to a tape host on machine 'A'.

I read somewhere that:
 1.  both machines have to have same user password
 2.  Machine 'B' has to belisted in /etc/hosts.equiv on machine 'A"

What else do I need to do? I tried the above two but did not help.
I am running ssh-1.2.27 on FreeBSD-3.3-STABLE

Thanks

Dan
