I can connect to the server with "ssh user@domain@servername -i id_rsa". But as soon as I add the private key to the SSH agent by "ssh-add id_rsa" this does not work anymore and aborts with the message "Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive)". The ssh command without "-i id_rsa" leads to the same error. As soon as I remove the private key from the ssh agent, public key authentication works again like a charm.

Could you send the output of ssh with debugging enabled for both a working
and failing connection? I.e. "ssh -vvv host"

It should show what is going on.
