Hi, Dustin!

The workaround works. Could you please give me a link to good
description of private directory's encryption in Ubuntu, internals and
so on.

Many thanks,
Alex

Bug description:
Spent all night to understand why public key ssh auth doesn't work. It seems to 
me that issue only affects Jaunty. Please have a look at the details below.

So, the configuration is:

1. Client
- lsb_release: Ubuntu 8.10 intrepid
- ssh-client: OpenSSH_5.1p1 Debian-3ubuntu1, OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007

2. Server A
- lsb_release: Ubuntu 8.04.2 hardy
- sshd: OpenSSH_4.7p1 Debian-8ubuntu1.2, OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007

3. Server B
- lsb_release: Ubuntu 9.04 jaunty
- sshd: OpenSSH_5.1p1 Debian-5ubuntu1, OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007

Server A and Server B have the same /etc/ssh/sshd_config:
RSAAuthentication yes
PubkeyAuthentication yes
StrictModes no

I turned StrictModes to "no", but every server has the same permissions on 
user's .ssh folder and .ssh/authorized_keys file. authorized_keys is the same 
on Server A and Server B.

So, I am able to connect with public key from Client machine to Server A, but I 
can't connect to Server B.

I run ssh client and sshd on Server B in debug mode, please find logs attached.

Most important strings from auth.log:
