  • Yes, these keys are passwordless. It seems it has something to do with the agent, but it doesn't seem related to the permissions, since the it works with -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa1, and with -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa and SSH_AUTH_SOCK set up (from user1). What I don't understand is why one of the files would require an agent but not the other. Commented Oct 22, 2012 at 19:15
