Thanks, I saved the script as script.sh, did chmod +x on it, and ran
it for three servers. Am I to understand that for now I won't be
prompted for passwords from those three servers? I did successfully
ssh into one of the servers, but I don't want to restart the machine
to check if it persists after a reboot. Does it?

Also, for backup purposes, if I save /home/user/.ssh/id_rsa.pub and
/home/user/.ssh/id_rsa will I be able to put them back into those
places and login without a password?

Thank you very much for the tip.
