Did you get this resolved? You may want to verify that you're using the
same version and type of key. ie: ssh1/rsa ssh2/rsa or ssh2/dsa.
Different defaults are used on different versions of freebsd, and I've no
idea what might be used in Redhat.
man ssh-keygen for more, but the essence is in the FILES section:
$HOME/.ssh/identity
protocol version 1 RSA authentication identity
$HOME/.ssh/identity.pub
protocol version 1 RSA public key
$HOME/.ssh/id_dsa
protocol version 2 DSA authentication
$HOME/.ssh/id_dsa.pub
protocol version 2 DSA public key
$HOME/.ssh/id_rsa
protocol version 2 RSA authentication
$HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
protocol version 2 RSA public key
