Wrong move though - really there should be one key per machine - and then ssh-agent set up properly to take care of the intermediate machines so you can bounce around. Using the same private key on multiple machines is just asking for trouble when you need to revoke something...

Oh, believe me, I know. That's why I said it caused me much gnashing of teeth. SSH, particularly OpenSSH, is such a thing of beauty. It's a shame most sysads that I've dealt with abuse it like it's rsh and telnet.
