Yes, we are using key-based authentication, so no password is needed for root on one machine to access all other machines thru SSH as root. Basically, we have told all the client machines that our server is an authorized host, and therefore (if root) not to prompt for a password. As for scp on the command line, I haven't tested that yet, but will do soon if I have time...
