The same thing oddly. The only difference being after sending the key 
(/home/_nagios/.ssh/id_dsa), on one account it would not accept and on 
the other it would.

I fixed it by deleting and re-adding the _nagios account on server2. I 
still have no idea what I did wrong, but its working now. The uid/gid 
did change from 498 to 1001, so maybe that was it?
