    Hi.

    Are there any security concerns when using ssh 2 (OpenSSH 3.0.2p1) with
    no passwords? That is, I've created a key on my machine and didn't
    specify a password. Next I copied the public key to a remote machine to
    ~/.ssh/authorized_keys. Now when I login with ssh I'm not prompted for
    a password.

    Besides somebody getting somehow hold of my private key, are there any
    other issues?

    Thanks,

    Alexander Skwar
