Hi Guys.

Just new to the iTerm2 world. I heard so much positivity about it so I downloaded on my Mac.

Now one of the big things for me downloading this was to SSH onto servers without the typing in the passwords all the time.

Now I know there's a "Password Manager" but I was fully sure you can also SSH onto a server and it will automatically save your RSA (private key) Is that possible on iTerm2?

Basically I would have quite a number of server's id be SSH onto and ideally I want to beable to login without inputting the password, what's the best method for this?

This is an ssh thing, not an iTerm thing.
