Greetings
I seem to be missing a step.
on the server I run ssh-keygen -t rsa or dsa
I copy id_rsa.pub into authorised keys on my workstation. The I try log in and it still asks for the password.
what is missing?
I believe you need to put the key into auth keys on the machine you are logging into... you didn't really make it clear which machine you were talking about. I run ssh-copy-id -i id_dsa.pub <user>@<machine> and it does the job.
