No meaning the keys are *not* fine. As I said twice now: 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. You need to read carefully. Note the *NOT* portion above. I believe that since the domains are different the ssh keys will be different. So diff should not return nothing but rather it should return that there are indeed differences between Domain A:~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub and Domain B:~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub. If not then log into Domain A and do the ssh-keygen -t dsa and then log into Domain B and do the ssh-keygent -t dsa there. They both should produce a ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub file and those two files should be different. This would also mean that you cannot share home directories between two different domains... > And i have tried regenerating them again. > I have added rsa.pub files to authorized_keys on remote servers.
