Maybe nothing in sshd_config.  Often this error comes from having too
loose permissions on your private key; you need to chmod go-rwx your
private keys, or sshd won't use them.

More generally, run ssh -v or ssh -vv to get some debug messages that
will almost certainly show you what the trouble is.
