I'm attempting to setup RSA Authentication for a particular user on two servers. A script runs via crontab, logs into one server and transfers data from the server1 to server2. Another script via cron, runs on server2, connects to server 1 and transfers data to it. However, I'm having issues configuring ssh/RSA authentication. An RSA key was generated on server1, then id_rsa.pub was copied to server2 in authorized_keys.
Here's my debug results:
