I'll follow up on a previous post regarding file permissions.
If your sshd_config has a line that says StrictModes=yes, then
the file permissions are checked.

$HOME/.ssh should be perms 700.
   > chmod 700 $HOME/.ssh
Files inside the above dir should be perms 600.
   > chmod 600 $HOME/.ssh/*

the permissions need to be applied to every user's $HOME/.ssh.
and of course the user should be the owner of his own .ssh dir and its contents.
