This is the same that I get on a box without public keys on it.

I know this sounds basic but do you have these files configured like this:
Server					Client
public key copied into   		file $HOME/.ssh/indentity
file $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys

Where the identity file was generated by keygen and the contents of 
identity.pub were copied into the authorized_keys file on the server. You 
are logging in as the same user on the client machine as the server 
machine right? If not, this could be the problem as well. For instance, 
when logged in as 'greg' on your local machine are you trying to log in as 
root on the remote machine?

Once I got my config files and identity files figured out things jst 
worked.
