I already have set this up for user@host for root and ssh host for normal users... but root still asks for a password after I set the authorized_keys file in ~root/.ssh.. I have looked at ssh_config(5) but can't tell what option (if any) does this... if anyone is coruious the final goal here is to set up a sysutils/fusefs-ssh for this host (already installed and working for normal users but want to make it so it is done as root)
