Info just incase someone is trying to do what I did and can't figure it out.
I knew it was something stupid.
I created my key on a windows box using puttygen.exe well it doesn't add ssh-rsa to the front of the file or
tom@whatever.test.com to the end.
Example:
ssh-rsa AAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAABJQAAA==
tom@whatever.test.com
Also, I was saying to myself how the heck does the windows machine ack with the solaris box to authorize the keys. Well, I had to run pageant.exe on my windows box and add the private key to that.
YAY, it works!
Thanks for all the tips and stuff guys, it really helped me figure out what the heck was going on!

as for the sun docs... what it has is really miserable. i can't make anything out of it.

-s bits
Set the key size to bits bits, should be multiple of 8 (optional).

# dropbearkey -t rsa -f /etc/dropbear/dropbear_rsa_host_key
extract a public key suitable for authorized_keys from private key:
# dropbearkey -y -f id_rsa | grep "^ssh-rsa " >> authorized_keys
