You're only partially right. My permissions are not 0700, but 0755 on the
directory. But, I can ssh to the server just fine, and the permissions are
the exact same as they are on a server that works.
I did run sshd with -ddd, and it did not say anything useful.
I DO know that if you've got your permissions wrong, then basic ssh stuff
won't work, but that's not my problem.
