If you want to avoid typing in your password all the time (recommended) you need to set up your ''ssh keys''.  There are some good instructions on this [http://code613-3.gsfc.nasa.gov/Computing/security/ssh_keys.html here].  Once you have created your keys on the local machine (i.e., '''discover''') you want to give '''sourcemotel''' the contents of the public key file (~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub).  Log on to '''sourcemotel''' in your browser and click on the "My Page" tab and then on the "Account Maintenance" heading.  Scroll down the page and you'll see a little block called "Shell Account Information."  Inside that is a link to "Edit Keys."  Click the link and then paste the contents of your id_dsa.pub file as a new line into the window.  Click "Update" and you're good to go.  It may take 10-15 minutes for '''sourcemotel''' to propagate the updated keys, so until that happens you may still have to type in your password.
