More often than not it is a permissions issue. The private-key that
you use must have permissions set to 600. Try separat8ng the problem
by just using ssh (no rsync). try this:
ssh -vvv -i your-private-key -l your-username 192.168.x.x (or whatever
the host is)
Look at the verbose output and see what it gives you. Also if you
have access to the SSH Server logs look there to see what is the
problem.
good luck
