You want to keep the id_rsa file private and copy the contents of
the corresponding id_rsa.pub file into the remote authorized_keys2
file (actually append it, but if there is only one it doesn't matter).
Your local ssh reads the private key to prove who you are to the
remote server that has the public key. The remote server may be
logging problems that keep it from working like incorrect permissions
somewhere in the path to the key. Also, this is for sshv2. If the
remote sshd is very old it might want the keys in the identity and
authorized_hosts files (but in that case you should probably update it).
Do these lines from /var/log/messages help?
