    The original poster mentioned "ssh -i <key>". Take a look at
    the ssh-keygen manual page, and at the answer to the 'How do I arrange
    to log in without typing a password or passphrase?' question in
    the FAQ at http://www.snailbook.com/faq/. The ~/.ssh/ directory is
    where OpenSSH keeps all its per-user configuration by default,
    including the keys, and ~/.ssh/id-online is simply my private key for
    logging into a certain set of machines.

    G'luck,
    Peter
