Yeah...

That's the same thing that I thought.  After generating the keys,
placing them in the appropriate directories on both systems, and setting
the appropriate flags in ssh2_config...

The manual says (please note the big "not yet implemented" notes!):
      PasswordAuthentication
              Specifies whether to use  password  authentication.
              The  argument  must  be  "yes"  or  "no".  (not yet
              implemented)

       RHostsAuthentication
              Specifies whether to try rhosts  based  authentica-
              tion.   Note that this declaration only affects the
              client side and has no effect whatsoever  on  secu-
              rity.   Disabling  rhosts authentication may reduce
              authentication time on slow connections when rhosts
              authentication  is  not  used.  Most servers do not
              permit  RhostsAuthentication  because  it  is   not
              secure (see RhostsRSAAuthentication).  The argument
              must be "yes" or "no".  (not yet implemented)

FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE

Any other ideas?

Peace,
