You must be using the same version of ssh on both machines. Run
ssh-keygen from each account you wish to use to login to a remote
machine. Do not use a passphrase when generating the keys.
Then upload your identity.pub file renamed to authorized_keys
into the .ssh dir on the remote machine. Make sure the
permissions on it are 600.
