I guess I have done everything right. Public/private keys, files permissions, etc.
There are 3 machines:
- ubuntu
- old_synology
- new_synology
- I start from ubuntu, ssh to old_synology without a password. It works.
- I ssh from old_synology to new_synology without a password. It works.
- I try to ssh from ubuntu to new_synology - it fails.
Connection from ubuntu port 41568 on new_synology port 1234

The obvious checks:
- ubuntu's public/private keys are valid because I can log in to old_synology
- new_synology's .ssh/* file permissions are correct because I can log in from old_synology
- ubuntu's public key is THE SAME in both synology's authorized_keys file.
Any ideas?
