Welcome to IWETHEY!

New What's wrong with dropping your
auth file in the ~/.ssh dir and logging in as that user?
New Tried that, didn't work
I was still prompted to log in. If it's supposed to work that way, I'll go try again, maybe I typoed something.

New ssh no-password login is very sensitive to...
...file and directory permissions. chmod 700 for the .ssh/ dir in your homedir, and 600 for the authorized_keys2 file inside that directory.

If not, it doesn't work, as it assumes they're compromised, or something to that effect.

New DING DING DING ^^^ what he said.
New +5 Informative.
I've found it also looks for ~/.ssh/authorized_keys not ~/.ssh/authorised_keys :-/

Not that you'd have that problem, I imagine.

Q:Is it proper to eat cheeseburgers with your fingers?
A:No, the fingers should be eaten separately.
New Never really notice that anymore
living right next door to the "z for s" guys... you just get really used to it.
New Turn on debugging
lots and lots of info available from the ssh client by turning up the verbosity.

If you are able to run the sshd daemon on the server, you can have it listen on a different port (so the system daemon can still be running), and you can up the the debugging/verbosity level on the server process. Don't run it in the background.

You watch the debugging on both processes and usually determine the problem.
New Can't do it on the server
If I had that kind of control over the server, I'd just set up the username I want. Will try more verbosity, though, see what I see.
