Can't login with SSH using keyfile

General Discussion
#1

hi Folks,

when I had seted up my server I set up SSH the way that users can only login using a keyfile, also root can login. Root can login with keyfile without problems!

Now I want to login as a user that is created by Virtualmin.
Using a keyfile dosent work.
It I chance the sshd that users can log in only with a password, the user can login.

I use Putty on Windows 7.
It tells me “Disconnected: No supported authentication methods available (server send: publickey)”

In /var/log/auth.log I find:

I used differnt keys. One created by PuttyGen and copied to the server, one created on the server (ssh-keygen) and imported to Putty.

Always the same errror.
~/.ssh is chmod 700
~/.ssh/authorized_keys2 is chmod 600

Any ideas?

Im going crazy.
Juzt created a new key on the server with ssh-keygen and now the login works.
Don’t know why - that’s the worst!
