What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. run  masterha_check_repl with config file below

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

expected: OK message

Please note: this is NOT an ssh key issue, masterha_check_ssh reports 
everything is clear

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
