I have a problem with ssh key on freebsd vps. I generated a key and it works on debian. i usually just copy paste it to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys and it starting to work. In freebsd it doesn't. I tried to put it into ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2 still doesn't ring the bell.. My key has a passphase. so when I log in osx password windows popups to enter the password, after i push ok it says ident added to id_rsa, then ssh still asks for password in shell.

my laptop is osx lion. server which works is debian 6 squeeze server which doesn't work freebsd8.2

update:

ssh verbose output:
