[LUG] Key-based SSH login for non-interactive user?

 

Hi all,

I'm having a bit of a dead-brain week this week.

We're trying to setup key-based SSH logins for the Nagios service so it
can monitor some of our other servers remotely via SSH.  I've setup
key-based SSH logins on my home server, but that was for me... an
interactive user account.  As I said, I'm having a bit of a dead-brain
week (see me previous posts on other topics for confirmation of this)
and I can't for the life of me think how to generate the RSA keys for
the Nagios user account on the SSH client machine.

Cheers.
Grant. :s
