I've setup & used ssh public keys many times before. All of a sudden, i can't get it to work at all. It works on the boxes where i've set it up in the past, but new ones just fail to work.

The servers are all RH-7.3. I thought that all that was required was:
0) on the client box, run "ssh-keygen -t dsa", hit enter at all the prompts, and i'll end up with ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub.
1) I then need to place the contents of that file on the server in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys.
2) ssh to the server, and i shouldn't be prompted for a password.


this isn't happening. i'm still prompted for a password. am i missing something obvious?
