Good point on the merit of a key when VPN and ssh share a password. I hadnt looked at it that way. I really like this answer along with AndrewRussell's. Will think on it and decide which I want to be the accepted answer. Thanks

This is largely the type of answer I was looking for, but what if the public key is only used for jumping between servers, not used for connecting from the personal computer? Though I dont know if its possible to restrict ssh to only accept the key if it comes from a certain subnet.
