Here's my configuration on the CLUE server.

[jsbaer at clue ~]$ ls .ssh
authorized_keys2  known_hosts

Haven't tried it with "authorized_keys".

Collins, I'm not sure what you mean by "Copied the ...authorized_keys2
file". If you copied authorized_keys2 from one machine to another, that
won't work (unless you originally copied the pub DSA/RSA key to to the
authorized_keys2 file that you subsequently copied to your target server.

Guess I'll play with this a bit later tonight, even if you do get it
working, cuz there's stuff about ssh that I need to learn anyway. Right
now, FWIW, I'm trying to restore an old battered Sabatier chef's knife to
good working order. Never have I had so much trouble getting an edge on
steel. Must be some hard stuff -- which is unusual for most kitchen
knives.

Actually, it is, and it works. (For me, anyway.)
