After following the directions I'm able to issue this command and reach my remote server w/out a password.

<tt>ssh -i ~/.ssh/rsync-key user@remotehost.com</tt>

but I get an error if I try:

<tt>rsync -avz -e "ssh -i ~/.ssh/rsync-key"<nobr> <wbr></nobr>/local/dir/ user@remotehost.com:/remote/dir/</tt>

The error is:

<tt>Warning: Identity file ~/.ssh/rsync-key not accessible: No such file or directory.</tt>

Why would the first work but not the second?
