Since password authentication is generally far easier to configure (i.e. 
you generally get it "for free"), I'm going to have to direct you to 
<http://cygwin.com/problems.html> with the added comment that you should
think about what information might be necessary for someone else to see
what your problem might be.  This process may even present the solution 
without the need for the repost.  I'd recommend that you scrutinize ssh
and sshd debug output (from their respective debug modes) and log files
too.

Good luck,
