I created a key on my machine with ssh-keygen. I copied the key to remote machine using ssh-copy-id.
Tried to connect to remote machine but it asked me the password. Both machines are ubuntu (local 11.04, remote 8.04)
EDIT (Output with extra verbose)
Here is the verbose from ssh:

EDIT:
Ok. I notice something here. I was looking at the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys and realized that in the end of the key it's written this:
me@my_computer_name
instead of:
me@my_computer_ip
I don't know if have something to do with it, but...
ssh-copy-id
takes care of that, and it's one of the best reasons to use it instead of the older manual method. For another, you seessh
trying to use the keys instead of skipping them, which means at least the client side perms are correct.ssh-copy-id myuser@remotehost
, or justssh-copy-id remotehost
? Check that a copy of~/.ssh/id-rsa.pub
on localhost exists in~/.ssh/authorized_keys
on remotehost.
