I believe you mean passphrase...

What about these issues I mentioned:

Additionally is ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub the same on both machines? (Does diff 
return no differences?). I believe, since these are two different 
domains, that the generated keys will not be the same. If they are the 
same then regenerate them on both machines and compare them again.

Also, ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub from Domain A should be added to the 
~/.ssh/authorized_keys on Domain B and visa versa from Domain B -> 
Domain A.

Finally, can you do passwordless authentication between two different 
machines in Domain A?
