of course RootLogin was allowed - but I found the solution ....
Well It was just a permission problem ...
On some machines HOME dir of root is /
- and the owner of root's Homedir is not root on these AIX machines -
so the permission checks of sshd do not allow pub key auth ....
Either I have to change the ownership or I deactivate StrictMode in
/etc/ssh/sshd_config...
I am a little bit surprised because I did not see it in debug mode
... - you can only see that pub key auth is not successful !
never the less thanks a lot for your advice
