First check that you can run a remote command over ssh using a manually entered password: ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] echo foo Then you just need to add the contents of the client user's ~/.ssh/id*.pub to the remote user's ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file. There's a program "ssh-copy-id" that will do this for you. The public-key authentication itself doesn't care about hostnames or IP addresses, so your special setup should not present a problem here.
