Problem when connecting from client openssh to server dropbear

Hi,

I installed dropbear 0.48.1 in a MIPS AU1550 without problems. I can
execute the server normally with -s -g options because there is only the
root user: 
$ dropbear -E -s -g

When I try to connect from a desktop using openssh I have a publickey
problem.

Desktop:
$ ssh root at 192.168.1.30
Permission denied (publickey).
$

The logs in the server (the MIPS) are:
# [126] Jan 01 02:05:30 Child connection from 192.168.1.31:35944
[126] Jan 01 02:05:31 exit before auth: Exited normally

I generated the keys in the server with 
$ dropbear -t rsa -f /etc/dropbear/dropbear_rsa_host_key
$ dropbear -t dss -f /etc/dropbear/dropbear_dss_host_key

The dir /etc/dropbear has permissions 700 and the key files 600

Is there something that I'm missing?
Could you give me any ideas for solving this issue?

Thanks!

Pedro
