Hi Mike,

Yes, all of the files/directories in my home directory have the right 
ownership. I do not know what you mean by "right permission" since each type 
of file can have different permissions. If you meant the permissions in my 
~/.ssh directory they are:

bash-2.05b$ ll
total 234
drwx------   2 ivan  ivan     512 Nov 19 22:05 .
drwxr-xr-x  28 ivan  ivan  198656 Nov 20 21:04 ..
-rw-r--r--   1 ivan  ivan     595 Nov 19 22:05 authorized_keys
-rw-------   1 ivan  ivan     668 Nov 19 22:00 id_dsa
-rw-r--r--   1 ivan  ivan     595 Nov 19 22:00 id_dsa.pub
-rw-r--r--   1 ivan  ivan    1817 Nov 20 14:20 known_hosts

Another interesting thing that I missed before in var/log/messages is :
....
sshd[45489]: error: PAM: success for ivan from ........
....

while in /var/log/auth.log I see:
sshd[45489]: Failed keyboard-interactive/pam for ivan from ... port 56269 ssh2

Thanks for your help,
Ivan
