Ahhh - Interesting. Instead of ~/.ssh/identity being used, I needed to
symlink ~/.ssh/id_rsa to ~/.ssh/identity.
The weird thing is that my setup of using ~/.ssh/identity has worked
perfectly for many years - but has only now stopped.
Has this been a change in ssh or something else I'm not aware of?
I think it's just the server configuration of Fedora, I could connect
with Fedora to my Debian server using keyfiles.
Maybe we should enable the keyfiles in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config by default?
