>From the ssh manpage: -i identity_file Selects the file from which the identity (private key) for RSA or DSA authentication is read. Default is $HOME/.ssh/identity in the user's home directory for protocol version 1, or $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa or $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa in the user's home directory for protocol version 2. Identity files may also be specified on a per-host basis in the configuration file. It is possible to have multiple -i options (and multiple identities specified in configuration files).
