ksh scripting, skip server if asks for password with SSH

Hi,
I am running a script that connets to a list of servers with SSH and runs a command but I have some servers that are asking for password (authorized keys is not configured properly).
Is there any way to do so that if I get a prompt for password just skip that entry?

my script:


Code:
#!/bin/ksh
for LINE in servers.txt
do
        ssh $LINE "some command"
done
