Running RMAN backups from grid control but using oracle account with rsa keys vs a password ?

I'm a sysadmin trying to help out one of our DBA's setup the RMAN backups (Oracle 11g on rhel5 ) so they can schedule and control them from the OEM grid control. But we want the oracle user to use ssh keys instead of a password. I have the working rsa keys in place for the user but the GUI seems to require a password and all tests fail if we do not specify a password. I've looked around and been unsuccessful finding anything to resolve this so far. Is this something that can be done or does the software require a password ?

Thanks for your help.

NAME

       dialups - list of terminal devices requiring a dial-up password

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/dialups

DESCRIPTION

       dialups	is  an	ASCII file which contains a list of terminal devices  that require a dial-up password. A dial-up password is an additional
       password required of users who access the computer through a modem or dial-up port.  The correct password must be entered before  the  user
       is granted access to the computer. The set of ports that require a dial-up password are	listed in the dialups file.

       Each entry in the dialups file is a single line of the form:

	      terminal-device

       where

       terminal-device	       The  full  path	name  of the terminal device that will require a dial-up password for users accessing the computer
			       through a modem or dial-up port.

       The dialups file should be owned by the root user and the root group.  The file should have read and write permissions for the owner (root)
       only.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: A sample dialups file.

       Here is a sample dialups file:

       /dev/term/a
       /dev/term/b
       /dev/term/c

FILES

       /etc/d_passwd	       dial-up password file

       /etc/dialups	       list of dial-up ports requiring dial-up passwords
