Actually, it is /home, I mounted it that way because I'm the only user on the system.
% echo $HOME
/home
% ls -l $HOME/.ssh
total 10
-rw-r--r-- 1 BA3759 mkgroup_ 1787 Aug 21 09:34 authorized_keys
-rw-r--r-- 1 BA3759 mkgroup_ 1152 Aug 21 09:38 config
-rw------- 1 BA3759 mkgroup_ 887 Aug 20 17:00 id_rsa
-rw-r--r-- 1 BA3759 mkgroup_ 218 Aug 21 09:34 id_rsa.pub
-rw-r--r-- 1 BA3759 mkgroup_ 230 Aug 20 20:39 known_hosts
-rw------- 1 BA3759 mkgroup_ 1024 Aug 21 09:34 prng_seed
-rw------- 1 BA3759 mkgroup_ 512 Aug 21 09:34 random_seed
And it only works with the IdentityFile line in the config. That's the same strange thing: It should
default to $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa, but it does not. Just like the default $HOME/.ssh/config does not work.

They are all there, this was no complete directory listing, just to show that the necessary files are
present.
Still stuck...
