Permission checks have gotten more strict since 7.3. Check your logs
(don't recall if it's "messages" or "secure", but probably the latter)
for clues as to which file/directory isn't right.
IIRC, the home directory and .ssh must not have group write permissions.
The .ssh/config file must not have any permissions for group or
others. The .ssh/authorized_keys file must not be group writable.
