[Clusterusers] ssh to nodes

[Lee Spector]

I'm still unable to ssh without password from master to the nodes, and 
reading the ssh man page I see stuff apparently indicating that we 
shouldn't even have to do the ssh-keygen. This is because all of the 
nodes (and master) are in /etc/hosts.equiv and:

      First, if the machine the user logs in from is listed in 
/etc/hosts.equiv
      or /etc/ssh/shosts.equiv on the remote machine, and the user names 
are
      the same on both sides, the user is immediately permitted to log 
in.

So it should just work?

The above text, however, is in the section about version 1 of the 
protocol, while the text about version 2 is less clear about this 
issue... And I don't see how to force the use of a particular 
version...

Anybody have any thoughts or advice about how to do scripted ssh in the 
context of all of this, either with or without keys? From what I can 
tell it should work with or without keys, but I can't get it to work 
either way :-(

Thanks,

  -Lee
