MIssing something here. What's this have to do with Gnome or CDE?

At a command prompt, type "ssh-keygen" to generate your keys. Enter
passphrase when requested, or don't enter one if you'd like it to work
unatended. It will generate two files; identity and identity.pub. Save
identity.pub on the machines you connect to in the file
~/.ssh/authorized_keys or ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2 (depending on
protocol) and you should be good to go.
