System Administration Toolkit: Distributed administration using SSH

In windows machine if you have cygwin installed

goto to cygwin
mkdir -p .ssh
ssh-keygen -t dsa -f .ssh/id_dsa -P ''

then append the contents of .ssh/id_dsa.pub to /export/home/buildusr/.ssh/authorized_keys(10.18.51.62)

cat id_dsa.pub >> /export/home/buildusr/.ssh/authorized_keys

SSH-ARGV0(1)                                                BSD General Commands Manual                                               SSH-ARGV0(1)

NAME
ssh-argv0 -- replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling SYNOPSIS
hostname | user@hostname [-l login_name] [command] hostname | user@hostname [-afgknqstvxACNTX1246] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec] [-e escape_char] [-i identity_file] [-l login_name] [-m mac_spec] [-o option] [-p port] [-F configfile] [-L port:host:hostport] [-R port:host:hostport] [-D port] [command] DESCRIPTION
ssh-argv0 replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling. If you link to this script with a hostname then executing the link is equivalent to having executed ssh with that hostname as an argument. All other arguments are passed to ssh and will be processed normally. OPTIONS
