difficulty with public key auth for non-root users

[Taylor Glenn]

Hi,
 
I'm having a bit of trouble getting public keys to work for users other
than root. I'm running 0.47 on a gumstix (linux 2.6.11, uClibc-0.9.27).
 
I take an authorized_keys file that works for root, copy it to the
user's .ssh directory, chown and set the same relative permissions (700
for ~, ~/.ssh, 600 for ~/.ssh/authorized_keys), and then try to log in
as the user--only to get a password prompt.
 
Is there something that I am missing (sorry I was a bit sparse on the
details, let me know if you want more)? Can anyone else replicate this
behavior?
 
Thanks,
Taylor
