Maybe you forgot to enable key authentication in sshd_server.

The most common error in adding a public key to a remote server is using vi and not turning off ai and setting wm=0. Each publickey is exactly one line long so check your .ssh/authorized_keys with the wc command. A proper file with 2 keys will have 2 lines:

wc -l /home/bill/.ssh/authorized_keys
2 /home/bill/.ssh/authorized_keys

So when you create a public key, it must be preserved as 1 line. If the key was created on a local server, you must transfer it to the remote server, either rcp or ftp, or copy-paste. If you copy the key as a file, verify that it arrived OK with the wc -l command. Then simply append the key to the authorized_keys file:

cat mykey >> .ssh/authorized_keys

Then verify the file has the right number of lines (1 for a single key, 2 for 2 keys, etc).

If you want to copy-paste the key, it gets fairly complicated. The reason is that your terminal emulator won't display exactly what is in the key. Most emulators will show only 80 or perhaps 132 characters in width, then either overwrite the last character (losing text) or automatically put the next characters on the next line(s). So you copy the text by highlighting it -- but the emulator you are using will very likely add a newline character after every line of characters. One exception is WRQ's Reflection for HP (NOT Reflection/X) where the option: Concatenate Wrapped Lines = yes will preserve long lines to the clipboard. You'll have to experiment with your emulator.

Once you copied a single line, you start vi on the remote machine and turn off end of line wrap with this commands:

:set noai wm=0

If the authorized_keys file already has keys, type G to go to the last line, then o to add a new line. Paste the line and type escape to finish. Before you close the file, press j and k to go up and down in the file. The cursor MUST move 1 key at a time, NOT 1 line at a time. Exit from the editor and verify that the file has the right number of lines with wc -l.

Very long lines require special handling, a case of what you see is not what you get.
