Had not before had the mis-mac perms issues so I'm open to learning what
else I missed.
Fixed the public key denied issue: on both hosts in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
passwordauthentification were set to 'no'; changed that to 'yes' and
restarted sshd.
The mac issue remains: I need to specify one (and I used hmac-sha2-512),
entered my password (not the passphrase) and was in. I can live with this if
I must, but it was not an issue before now.
