ssh only with password

[Martin Imhaeuser]

Hi all,

first thank you for help. But nothing works.

* I have deleted all files in my home directory and started again fresh.
* I have  taken the commands "mv" and "cat" and checked the permissions.
Further the remote machine and the local machine are the same. I login 
as imhaeuse (user) on milaptop (machine), open a shell, type exec 
ssh-agent $SHELL and ssh-add, give my passphrase and finally type ssh 
imhaeuse at milaptop. This should be the moment where my password is not 
needed any longer. BUT I must enter my password.

The funny thing is when I login as root on milaptop the procedure is 
working meaning that I must not enter my password for root.

Following you see my context in the shell afer the command "ssh milaptop 
-vvv":

[imhaeuse at milaptop imhaeuse]$ ssh milaptop -vvv

Has somebody an idea what is wrong with my system?
