@HarrySteiger: The "no password" option means you can basically enter *anything* as the password. We say "nothing" for convenience, but a bogus password will do the job just fine, too

.
(I'd double-check the setup from a computer with a "real" SSH client first, though. i.e., OpenSSH on *nix, PuTTY on Win. You'll at the very least get a more useful error message than "*meep*" if something goes wrong ^^).
