Not sure what your trouble is. The client's output of ssh -vv when the
authentication fails might help to debug it.
If sshd can't read the client's public key, then for sure that would cause
the authentication to fail. I don't have sshd installed on any of the hosts
I can get to right now, but maybe someone who does could post their output
of
ls -ld ~ ~/.ssh ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
so you could compare your permissions to theirs.
One thing to try is to rerun ssh-host-config (from an admin shell I
believe).
