Check that you allow X11 forwarding and root login ("yes", not 
"without password") on the server. Other than that, most problems
are due to different versions of the SSH protocol used (v.2 vs
v.1.5 on older versions of OpenSSH). Check if you have id_rsa and
id_dsa keys for v.2 in authorized_keys[2], and "Protocol" and 
RSA-related options in sshd_config.
