running command on another box; passwordless

I have two load balancing boxes... One primary (box1) and one backup/failover (box2).

I want to make sure the heartbeat is running on both boxes via a script.
While I'm on box1, I want to run as any user:

ssh box2 service pulse status

and not have box2 ask for a password.

Any ideas?

Hi there,

You have to configure key based authentication for that.

Have a look at the following link: http://www.linuxproblem.org/art_9.html
