RedHat Ssh passwd less, shell script

Hi All, Wishes!!
I need some help to prepare a script to copy the public key from admin host to multiple client hosts to make them login without password.

Detailed :
I have an admin host "admin1" and i generated sshkeygen, now i have id_rsa.pub and i have around 50 client hosts. i want to copy the admin1 public key to all clients.

from admin1, i wrote the small while loop,

Code:
while read line
do
    ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub $line
done < clients.txt

Moderator's Comments:
Mod Comment Code tags added

but, here if i run the script, for every client i need to enter "yes" and then "password" for each client.

please suggest me to automate the same without entering "yes" and then "password" for each host.

Thanks
kumar

SSH-KEYSIGN(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					    SSH-KEYSIGN(8)

NAME
ssh-keysign -- ssh helper program for host-based authentication SYNOPSIS
ssh-keysign DESCRIPTION
ssh-keysign is used by ssh(1) to access the local host keys and generate the digital signature required during host-based authentication with SSH protocol version 2. ssh-keysign is disabled by default and can only be enabled in the global client configuration file /etc/ssh/ssh_config by setting EnableSSHKeysign to ``yes''. ssh-keysign is not intended to be invoked by the user, but from ssh(1). See ssh(1) and sshd(8) for more information about host-based authen- tication. FILES
/etc/ssh/ssh_config Controls whether ssh-keysign is enabled. /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key These files contain the private parts of the host keys used to generate the digital signature. They should be owned by root, read- able only by root, and not accessible to others. Since they are readable only by root, ssh-keysign must be set-uid root if host- based authentication is used. Note that ssh-keysign is not set-uid by default on Mac OS X. /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key-cert.pub /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key-cert.pub /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key-cert.pub If these files exist they are assumed to contain public certificate information corresponding with the private keys above. SEE ALSO
ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1), ssh_config(5), sshd(8) HISTORY
ssh-keysign first appeared in OpenBSD 3.2. AUTHORS
