Are this keys somehow compatible?
/root/.ssh must be a directory - did a file get copied to the wrong place? The .pub file should be copied to (or really appended to) /root/.ssh/authorized_keys - make sure it it isn't writable by anyone else (same for .ssh). Dropbear should support rsa or dsa keys, assuming it's been compiled with normal options. Cheers, Matt
