Asuming it's for ssh2, you need to create a pair of keys, using 'ssh-keygen -t
rsa' then you upload/move/copy/rename the public key (from ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub)
to the remote server and place it in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2 (either copy or
append, if you have more than one there already), and that should be it.

If it's not working, check sshd_config to allow for public keys (default
should be yes, iirc).
