Thanks... but I still have the problem. I wonder if it concerns upgrading any packages in Debian

This is how I do it when setting up a new machine:

Mmm. Interesting as I find authorized_keys works for me (none of my
Debian systems claims to understand your ssh2 variant).

ssh-keygen -t rsa       # Does anyone know whether dsa or rsa is better?
...
ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] 'mkdir -pm 700 .ssh;cat>>.ssh/authorized_keys' 
<.ssh/id_rsa.pub

Actually I have a little script that does this for me (ssh-auth) that I
really ought to get round to offering to the ssh client distribution.
It's at http://www.roaima.co.uk/stuff/20080819/ssh-auth if anyone's
interested in critiquing it first.
