Authenticated with partial success ?

It probably means that the authentication succeeded but the
authorization failed. Check the authorized_keys entries.

The SSHv2 authentication protocol draft is a little unclear.
Section 2.2 seems to mean that if authentication succeeds but
authorization fails then the server must respond with a partial
userauth error.

Cheers,

Nico
