I think the permission 0600 on authorized_keys is correct. Try setting the permissions on $HOME/.ssh to 700 as well. To see more what's going on, if you have control of the machine you are trying to log in to, stop sshd and start it manually with -dd -e options set: /usr/sbin/sshd -dd -e (see man sshd). You should then get a bunch of diagnostics sent to the server terminal when you try to ssh from your client.
