First, I apologize for asking a ssh question that has it's troubles based in Linux, here.
A friend of mine was trying to get HostBased Authentication working on a Linux box (Linux 2.4.18-3). To cut to the chase he deleted the password method of connecting (he was trying to get a passwordless connection going and his fingers betrayed him) and now has no way to get into the box --both ssh -1(i and t) and ssh2 are hosed. He is near me in NJ and the box is in a closet in Arizona. All my stuff is FreeBSD and I've never had trouble getting passwordless ssh going but, apparently, Linux is either more difficult or unforgiving or both. I know this is a better question for a Linux list, but hey, I'm used to you guys. Private replies, public replies, thoughts and ideas appreciated.
