SSH uses 2 different keys. One is used by the server to authenticate itself, so that the user/client can recognize it if someone tries to pull a man-in-the-middle attack.
The other is used by the user to authenticate himself to the server. For that you need to put the contents of your id_rsa.pub into the file .ssh/authorized_keys2 on the remote server. Easiest way to get the remote fingerprint and send up your public key at the same time would be
Code:
cat .ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh user2@server2 'cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys2'
