Problems with Lsyncd between two linodes

After spending about 7 straight hours trying to make this work I give up and hope someone in Linode land can help.

Here is what I have done:

OS: Debian 8.

… Purchased a second linode and setup everything by first cloning disks from the first to the second. Everything is working fine on both linodes.

… Both linodes use ssh keys for the root user. They are the same keys in root/ssh of authorizedkeys and idrsa for the private key.

… Installed Lsyncd. Using docs I found in linode guides and tutorials I set everything up for the lsyncd.conf.lua file.

The sync of files from linode#1 to linode#2 is not working and I am at a total loss as to why. I have tried many different conf files from around the net but not found anything that works.

I can ssh using the terminal from each linode to the other using the private IP's.

Does anyone have a lsyncd.conf.lua that works?
