[CLUE-Tech] Passwordless scp?

I'm trying to set up a way to have a client scp a file to one of my
servers and having it automated so a password is not necessary.
Based on my google search results, I've done the following:
created a username for this customer on my server
ran 'ssh-keygen -t rsa' as this user. This created an id_rsa and
id_rsa.pub in their ~/.ssh directory
had them create the same username on their server with the same password
copied both of these files to their server in the ~/.ssh directory
(tried copying id_rsa.pub to authorized_keys on this client for testing
purposes)
From what I've read, that seems to be all I have to do to make this
work. But unfortunately, both ssh and scp are still prompting for a
password.
Can someone steer me in the right direction?
Thanks
