[KLUG Members] Passphrase-Less SSH Keys

I'm looking to create a cron job using ssh.  Being a scheduled job,
running unattended, the job can't easily put in passwords.

I see you can create an SSH key that doesn't have a password.

The remote box already has a normal account with an SSH key that
requires a password.

Should I create another account and put the passphrase-less key in
there?

Or can I create another key with the same account, and put it also into
the normal account on the remote box?

kind regards,

bill
