I hate to respond to myself, but I found that if I set the following, the key disallowed error goes away: UsePrivilegeSeparation no I've known about privilege separation, but I guess I didn't think it would be turned on by default... However, the problem still persists.

I'm running into a problem on SuSE 9.1 Professional for AMD64 where hostbased authentication doesn't seem to be working properly...
In /etc/ssh/sshd_config and /etc/ssh/ssh_config I have it turned on:
HostbasedAuthentication yes
I've also turned on:
PermitRootLogin yes
In /etc/ssh/shosts.equiv I have the proper entry:
master 10.1.1.128
But when I try to log in, it asks for the password. When running sshd with debugging turned on (sshd -d -d -d -p 2222), it reports the following (snipped for briefness):

I believe the problem is in "mm_answer_keyallowed: key 0x55cb20 is disallowed", but I don't know why it's being rejected... Does anyone have any ideas? I've even tryed chmod'ing /usr/lib64/ssh/ssh-keysign to be suid root (4755) without success...
