Some quick notes on the sequence for installing ssh keys.

Do ssh-keygen on the SOURCE host.
Write to file, probably not the same id_rsa you currently have
On SOURCE machine, now should see two files : id_rsa_stuff, id_rsa_stuff.pub
Go to DESTINATION host. Copy key contents of SOURCE id_rsa_stuff.pub into DESTINATION's authorized_keys file.
make sure DESTINATION authorized_keys is permission 600
on SOURCE machine, source the agent - source ~/.ssh-agent (check that .ssh-agent is the filename using ls -a command).
on SOURCE machine, do ssh-add .ssh/id_rsa_stuff
Try it. ssh user@DESTINATION
Should just work with no password.
