Yes! It is possible to login to a remote SSH server without entering password. We need to use ssh-keygen technology to create public and private keys.

Create ssh-keygen using the command below.

$ ssh-keygen

Copy public keys to remote host using the command below.

$ ssh-copy-id -i /home/USER/.ssh/id_rsa.pub REMOTE-SERVER

Note: *Replace USER with user name and REMOTE-SERVER by remote server address.*

The next time we try to login to SSH server, it will allow login without asking password, using the keygen.

What should be the best way to securely connect to remote Postgres server from Rails.

I'm wonder how most people securely connect to a Postgres database on a server separate from the app server.

The ActiveRecord docs for a MySQL connection have explicit SSL options, whereas with Postgres it seems one would pass SSL options as documented for libpq.

However a quick Googling returns SO threads with suggestions to use SSH tunnels. Which I guess could be managed with something like AutoSSH.

I'd love to hear from others. Is one method faster than the other, or easier to maintain?
