Why can't I ssh into my server using my private key?
- by user61342
I just setup my new server as I used to, and this time I can't login using my private key.
The server is ubuntu 11.04. And I have setup following ssh key directories.
root@myserv: ls -la
drwx------ 2 root root 4096 Sep 23 03:40 .ssh
And in .ssh directory, I have done chmod 640 authorized_keys
Here is the ssh connection tracebacks:

Update:
I have found the reason but I can't explain it yet.
It is caused by uploading the key using rsync -chavz instead of scp, after I used scp to upload my key, the issue is gone. Can someone explain it?
Later, I tried rsync -chv, still not working
