I assume that version was a typo since your original message had
"=>3.7p1"?

For 3.7x you should have:
UsePAM no
PasswordAuthentication yes
ChallengeResponseAuthentication no

or

UsePAM yes
PasswordAuthentication no
ChallengeResponseAuthentication yes

Check the server-side debug in either of those configs.
