I've been a longtime Softsqueeze user using ssh just using password
authentication.  I'd like to lock down my server a little tighter and
go to keypairs only, but Softsqueeze isn't going along with the
program.  If I set it to use a private key I generated with Putty it
always prompts me for my password.  Using the passphrase for the key
fails, but if I use my password like I was before, it works.  Since
I've disabled password logins via ssh I am having to run Putty with the
appropriate tunnels for Softsqueeze to work which is hardly ideal.

Before anyone has to point it out, yes, I know that Softsqueeze is
being deprecated and will be replaced by Squeezeplay.  Squeezeplay has
a fatal flaw for me in that it needs udp for discovery (at this time)
and ssh only tunnels tcp.

Getting back to Softsqueeze, am I doing something that is preventing
Softsqueeze from using my key?
