[TriLUG] Im stumped by SSH

Last Friday my SSH stopped working correctly.
I have some scripts that move files, etc., to a Redhat 7.3 server from a
Redhat 8.0 workstation.

Automated scripts stopped working and I noticed that when I try to SSH
into the 7.3 server I am now prompted for a password.
I suspect that once I resolve this my scripts will continue to work as
expected.

I didn't notice any changes to any of the usual suspect files, so I
decided to rebuild my SSH from scratch for this account.
I restarted ssh on both systems.  I ran ssh-keygen on the workstation
and copied the identity.pub up to the server where I cat'ed it to the
authorized_keys file.
At this point I expected to be able to ssh in without having to type a
password... but it still prompts me for one.

Any ideas what else could be going on ?
