update & answer

Thank you everyone for all your help. I now know why the keys was not working.

It was my fault. Basically there was a typo, I had autherized_keys instead of authorized_keys. I copied autherized_keys to authorized_keys and now everything works.

       -f file
	      Write the secret key to the file file.

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

       -y     Just print the publickey and fingerprint for the private key in file.

EXAMPLE

       generate a host-key:
	# 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
