I have two VM machines, and I want them to run a remote command on each other via ssh. I ran these commands on the first machine:

ssh-keygen -t rsa
ssh-copy-id 192.168.254.148

Then I ran this command and it didn't ask for a password:

[root@fazi1 data1]# ssh root@192.168.254.148 df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3 7.7G 893M 6.5G 12% /
tmpfs 1.5G 16K 1.5G 1% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1 194M 41M 144M 22% /boot
/dev/sda2 11G 7.7G 2.4G 77% /data1
/dev/sda7 4.5G 539M 3.8G 13% /data2
/dev/sda5 7.7G 1.4G 6.0G 19% /opt

I ran these commands on the second machine:

ssh-keygen -t rsa
ssh-copy-id 192.168.254.150

And when I wanted to check if it is working or not:

[root@fazi2 data1]# ssh root@192.168.254.150 df -h
root@192.168.254.150's password:

Why does it work the way I want on the first machine and act different on the second one?

What should I do? (I ran these commands a few times to make sure I didn't enter an incorrect password.)

  What user did you create the keys for on the local system and what user ran ssh-copy-id? There is no indication in the question that this was done by the same user that you're trying to connect as (root). Also, you don't need root to run df -h.

If I remember correctly, if root login is disabled on .150, i.e. you have

PermitRootLogin no

in /etc/sshd/sshd_config, it will reject all the keys, and possibly fall through to password authentication, if that is in principle allowed. (It will also then reject all passwords, even the correct one.)

Running ssh -vvv root@192.168.254.150 false will give you a pretty verbose output of what might go wrong. You'll see lines for your keys in /root/.ssh/id_rsa etc., and you can see if your client is offering them to the server, and if the server likes them. If you're not offering, it's likely a permission problem on the client side, if the server is rejecting them, they're either not in authorized_keys on the remote side (but ssh-copy-id should have given you an error then, or the server doesn't permit root logins.
