Thanks for replying, Garrett!

There is only one key in the authorized_keys file (the one I'm 
trying to use), and I cannot login with it. The umask is:

-rw-r--r--  1 root  cvs  601 Feb  1 16:08 authorized_keys
-rw-r--r--  1 root  cvs  601 Feb  2 10:27 authorized_keys2
-rw-r--r--  1 root  cvs   13 Feb  1 17:10 known_hosts

Thanks!

Regards,

DB
