Hi,
I am currently using scp manually to update different files from one host to
3 other hosts : at connection my password is requested and I enter it

I want to setup crontab to do so. 

How can I configure scp to avoid password prompting. I understand I have to
use

scp -B -i identity_file cpThisFile [email protected]/targetFile

How do I generate identity_file for the 3 different targets and where should
it be created

The purpose is to propagate IMSS rules, copy /etc/hosts,
/etc/postfix/transportList etc from one master to slaves,

If full instruction and readymade scripts, same amount of points will be
available

Best Rgds,
