I can no longer log in to my server. All I did was try to copy an ID to a different server, but now I get prompted for my password every time I log in.
Attempt 1.
Copy the .ssh directory from a server that works, but I still can't log in.
Attempt 2.
regenerate keys with ssh-keygen and then ssh-copy-id but this still fails
Attempt 3.
SSH keys no longer work? none of the solutions here apply to me

How can I get my password-less login working again?
