BTW:

Did you change your sshd_config file so that password authentication
is permitted? By default, only RSA authentication is allowed.

RSA authentication is dependent of the file ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
which should contain all allowed public keys with which you or
others want to login. On the remote machine from which you login
you need the private key.

When, for some reason, the RSA authentication fails, sshd looks
if password authentication is allowed. If not, you get the
"permission denied" message and it's ok!
