The error you describe in comment #1 is not an error and is the correct way to use SSH keys. You create a key pair on your local machine and then use ssh-copy-id to copy the public key to a remote server. The private key should not be transfered in any circumstances (as this would be a possible security issue)! The SSH server should have ONLY public keys.
