sshd
Well, the reason I couldn't get it working on a development box last week was that when I used Public Key authentication, I was copying over the public key to the remote box (correct), but then specifying the public key rather than the private key on the command line. E.g.
ssh -l random_user -i .ssh/id_rsa.pub remotemachine
Rather than
ssh -l random_user -i .ssh/id_rsa remotemachine
D'oh!
Completed the Wii Boogie story-line over lunch. I'm very sad.
