Under debian, theres a ssh-copy-id(1) program which does all this automagically, it's easy to use:
ssh-copy-id ''hostname''
and it's all setup!
+
+----
+To generate a key use ssh-keygen(1). If you can, you want to use a ssh2 key. This can be generated with:
+ ssh-keygen -t dsa
+or
+ ssh-keygen -t rsa
+(depending on what type of key you want)
+
+then use
+ ssh-copy-id ''hostname''
+and ya done.
