Nope. It uses the passwords in /etc/passwd. Is your /etc/passwd entry
correct at all? Correct name (the name used when trying to login),
correct home directory set, etc. Did you insert an encrypted password,
created by `crypt'? Is your sshd_config file ok?

The server is a Windows system? If not, you have to change the
name of the authorized_keys file to all lower case. You should
care for the mode of the files. Be paranoid! ssh likes that.

Server: Start sshd -d (Debug)
Client: Start ssh -v (Debug too)

Examine the output. It's mostly very helpful and it's the fastest
way to find problems with ssh.
