I'm having a similar problem with sshd on a Solaris 8 machine.  I have the
following in my sshd_config

RhostsAuthentication no
#
# For this to work you will also need host keys in /etc/ssh_known_hosts
RhostsRSAAuthentication yes
RSAAuthentication no

Trying to access this machine from any other machine (various ssh
clients) requires a password each time.  Regardless of what's in
/etc/shosts.equiv and /etc/ssh_known_hosts

Install steps 

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/encap/openssh-2.2.0p1 --with-tcp-wrappers
make
make install
epkg openssh   (makes sym links into /usr/local space)

I've tried putting the shosts.equiv and ssh_known_hosts files in 
/etc/
/usr/local/etc
/usr/local/encap/openssh-2.2.0p1/etc 

To see if it's pulling somewhere different do to the --prefix I added
since I couldn't get that info from sshd even with -d -d -d added

Any ideas on where I've screwed up?

Thanks
James
