Just to pick a nit or two...
I they couldn't have figured this one out for themselves, should
you also point out that they need to cat their identity.pub files into
the ssh command, like this:
cat ~/.ssh/identity.pub | \
ssh -l user hostname1 'cat >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys'
BTW... Use ~/ instead of /home/username just in case their
home directory is NOT in /home (like root).
