Hi All,

I am trying to get "password less" public key pair authentication to work 
between my laptop and my desktop and am not being very successful.

        ritchie@laptop:~/.ssh> ssh ritchie@desktop
        Password:
        Last login: Sat May  9 11:44:06 2009 from desktop
        Have a lot of fun...
        ritchie@desktop:~>

As you can see, ssh works and lets me in BUT it still asks me for my password. 
Grrrr.

I feel I am missing something really stupid. All pointers welcome :-)

Setup:
Laptop:                                               Desktop: 
OS: OpenSUSE 11.1                        OpenSUSE 10.3

I followed the instructions here... 
http://en.opensuse.org/Public_Key_Authentication

I created my rsa key pair on laptop and copied it (id_rsa.pub) into my 
~/.ssh/authorized_keys on desktop.

I made the suggested changes to client (laptop) and server (desktop) config 
files.

I can post config files if necessary.

Kind Regards,

Ritchie
