- /.ssh (permissions 700)
- /.ssh/authorized_keys (600)
- /incoming/.ssh (permissions 700)
- /incoming/.ssh/authorized_keys (600)
I have tested with the /incoming/.ssh moved to another directory name - that has not helped either.
On our side - I have used the -vvv option and have attached one of the attempts to this message.
Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated. Points will be assigned!
Thank-you for your assistance!
Dorothy

Permissions are key. If ownership or permissions is off to any degree this will not work.
try ssh -vvv for diagnostic purposes.

SolutionThe fact that you can write to /.ssh (which is supposed to be the root directory of the system) indicates that the remote server is probably chrooted. The sysadmin of the remote site might have done other non-default configurations too: it is best to ask him/her.
The remote sysadmin can even disable key authentication entirely, if he/she wishes to do so. The "authentications that can continue" information in the debug output is not necessarily true. For example, if password authentication has been disabled from the server side, the client can still be offered a "password" authentication method; it just will never succeed.
The remote server will *not* tell you exactly why your connection attempt is denied. This is a security issue: until you've successfully authenticated yourself, "you" might be an intruder trying to find a way into the system. No reason to offer clues to an unknown person or malware which may be attempting an unauthorized entry, right? Instead, the reason for rejection is stored into the remote server's logs - if you are not an intruder, you can contact the remote sysadmin and troubleshoot the problem together with him/her.
