I am not sure why it fails...probably try with a dsa key and ssh2
On X, run...

Code:
 ssh-keygen -t dsa

Copy the key from ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub (on X) to the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2 on the remote host.(on Y) (Note the filename now is authorized_keys2)

Ensure authorized_keys2 is not writable by group and others i.e
Code:
chmod go-w ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2

thanks again...

actualy in my case probably DSA keygeneration was also needed.
"ssh-keygen -t dsa"
i incorporated this also and it worked.

thanks a lot
