the $HOME directory should be not be world writable.
also, check the permissions on the ssh directory ($HOME/.ssh). the
permissions on the directory should be 700.
the files inside the directory should be:
-rw-r--r-- 1 user sysadmin 3142 Jan 29 19:18 authorized_keys
-rw------- 1 user sysadmin 383 Jan 29 11:05 config
-rw------- 1 user sysadmin 547 Jan 20 15:18 key
-rw-r--r-- 1 user sysadmin 351 Jan 20 15:18 key.pub
-rw-r--r-- 1 user sysadmin 6222 Feb 9 10:22 known_hosts
-rw------- 1 user sysadmin 512 Feb 9 10:22 random_seed
