What I was reporting is that the guide as is, fails to instruct someone
how to setup ssh RSA key logins successfully. if you follow this guide a
ssh login will fail with the error message I reported and ask for the
users password.
I feel that the "ssh-add" step needs to be added to this guide, if that
is suitable for setting up remote logins.
