Debian 3.1, openssh 3.8.1p1 / Putty

I'm trying to use an RSA key to authenticate an ssh client connection,
but the key is refused. I've set logging to DEBUG in the sshd_config,
and it does show that it's attempting the keyfiles, but it doens't
give me detail on the failure. The authorized_keys2 file is set to 640
(I've also tried 440, 400, 600).

I'm lost as for what to try next, any suggestions?

Relevant snippet from logs..
