1.) On the client (the computer that wants to do the login into another computer) go to

cd ~/.ssh

Check if there's is already a id_rsa.pub file

If that file does not exist, create a public and private key by running this command:

ssh-keygen -t dsa

2.) Copy the public key to the "remote" computer where you want to login:

ssh-copy-id -i .ssh/id_dsa.pub user@server

user@server is the user on the remote computer where you want to login and server is the address or domain name of it

3.) After successfully copying it with ssh-copy-id, you can just ssh to that remote computer:

ssh user@server

and you won't be prompted again.

And with rsync you'd just do:

rsync -[OPTIONS] -e "ssh" /path/to/local/directory user@server:/path/to/remote/directory
