Assuming that it uses the same method as normal ssh, then you can use
ssh-keygen to produce ~/.ssh/id_rsa and ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub. Copy 
~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2 and you should be set.

Make sure you generate keys for ssh2. You will need to read the manpage
to check how to do this.
