SSH keygen and login problem

[a bv]

hi

the .ssh is  drwx------

i changed from 600 to 633 for authorized_keys  but still asking for password

i checked  before ssh-copy-id doesnt seem to be exit on Checkpoint
SPLAT . i login with my normal user then use the expert command (which
is like su) i use the root privilegs for key creating)
