You should be good to go with the openssh from redhat for 7.2 get the new ones from the updates directory and install them if you don;t have it working yet. When I have problems like this it is usually either permisions on the .shh directory or the authorized_keys file. BTW it is not authenticated_keys :) ssh is very particular about this. you can try running the ssh daemon in debug mode to get more information : disable the running sshd -> service sshd stop start sshd in debugmode -> /usr/sbin/sshd -d then connect to the box and watch the intereaction on the terminal you started sshd from. It will kill itself after the connection is terminated so youwill need to restart it for every test and after testing use service sshd start to get the original one going.
