Hmm, I can't! This is a FreeBSD server and it's rather locked down with
respect to normal user access rights.

So, all I
need to ask them to do is uncomment #Match User and add my user name and
options? Like so:
=================================
Match User mick
PubkeyAuthentication yes
AuthorizedKeysFile ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
PasswordAuthentication no
=================================
Is that correct?
Correct, provided you have sufficient permissions to create this file
(or at modify it) on the server, which apparently is not the case yet
