Hi Kalin, Don't worry about that message - I see the same thing here with an ssh connection that succeeds. The "try pubkey" message displays a private key file. Did you check the sshd_config file on the server and the /var/log/messages file for additional hints? If you see anything interesting, please post the output here. Also make sure that PubkeyAuthentication is enabled ("on") in sshd_config.
