This error is when you ssh in (with PuTTY, for example) without attaching the private key.

Hello list,
on a CentOS 6.4 machine I'm creating accounts with empty passwords. Each user's public key is located in <user's home>/.ssh/authorized_keys.
When trying to ssh into that machine, following error message is displayed: Permission denied (publickey).
In /etc/ssh/sshd_config I've set: PasswordAuthentication no UsePAM no
If I set a password for the users, the public key auth works without any problems.
Could anyone tell me what I'm missing here?
Thanks Michael
