How did you become the "dirvishuser" user?

If you did "su dirvishuser", ssh may still look for the key in your own
homedir.

man dirvish.conf
rsh: command (S)
Remote shell utility.
This can be used to specify the location of ssh or rsh and/or to
provide addition options for said utility such as -p port for
ssh to use an alternate port number.
If not specified ssh will be used.
So add a line:
rsh: ssh -i /home/dirvishuser/.ssh/keyfile
to the dirvish config. But I expect that if you put dirvish-runall in
dirvishuser's crontab it will work as-is because then there is no
confusion about the homedir.
