Frazzled on id_dsa.pub logins (long post with ssh -vvv)

Hi gang
To be clear, I've done this stuff before, but I can't seem to figure
out why it isn't working right now.
My situation is this:
I have a machine I want to use as an rsync backup master. That
machine needs to use rsync through ssh to get to the remote
machines. All the machines are on an internal network (10.x.x.x).
I've created, as root, a dsa keypair using:
# ssh-keygen -t dsa
This resulted in id_dsa and id_dsa.pub
# ls -l .ssh
total 12
-rw------- 1 root root 1192 2006-03-30 15:47 id_dsa
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1112 2006-03-30 15:47 id_dsa.pub
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1890 2006-03-28 14:23 known_hosts
I used scp to copy the .pub over to /tmp on the remote machine:
# scp .ssh/id_dsa.pub root at remote:/tmp
Then I ssh to the remote machine as root and do:
# cat /tmp/id_dsa.pub >> /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
I checked the md5sum on the authorized_keys file on the remote
machine (there's only this entry) and the id_dsa.pub on the first
machine. They're identical files.
Back on the first machine, I try to ssh -vvv as root (warning...long
list of stuff coming):
# ssh -vvv root at 10.100.244.32

root at 10.100.244.32's password:
I also tried using the A name of the machine and had the same output.
Strangely enough, I could at one time connect using the id_dsa.pub as
a "regular" user. However, in my futzing about, I've killed that
possibility as well.
I can connect to other machines using the same id_dsa.pub file. I'm
guessing there's something in my configuration on the other machine
which is causing this to fail. Thoughts??
OpenSSH 3.6.1p2 on RHEL AS3. On the remote machine I have this log
entry:
authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=NODEVssh ruser=
rhost=machine.domain.tld user=root
