OpenSSH connection problems - windoze connects, linux doesn't

I have a Fedora 10 system running the default sshd service and I'm trying to connect to it from my laptop (running Ubuntu 9.04).
I have the server setup to accept only public key connections and it all works fine when connecting with Putty from windoze but I have no joy from linux.
I created an rsa and a dsa key and tested both just in case that was the problem.
When I run "ssh -vvv" I get the following output:

As you can see at the bottom of that debug, all looks good until the public key is sent and then the connection gets dropped.

I was guessing that the key was screwy in some way but I have no idea how and the debug tells me nothing.

Any thoughts from anyone?

Resolved:

FYI, it was the sshd_config file:

Code: 
# GSSAPI options
GSSAPIAuthentication no
#GSSAPIAuthentication yes
GSSAPICleanupCredentials no
#GSSAPICleanupCredentials yes
These entries were enabled and I disabled them and all now works.
I have no idea what they do but they were causing me all sorts of trouble.
