Inclusion of the -i flag and the location of the private key solved the problem.

Thanks Steve!

You really don't need multiple ppk pairs for different hosts. One for all is what I do. As long as you keep the private key private you only need distribute the one public key every where you need secure identification.

Mike is correct. You are actually making it much harder setting up different keys. All you need to do is what Mike has written above. I have several connections that I maintain in this fashion.

Good Luck!!
