As far as I know, shadow passwords shoudn't affect pubkey logins, in
fact any password policies on the machine will be overridden if you
use pubkey auth.
Have you checked that you have the right syntax in ~/.ssh2/authorization ?
That should read:

key mykey.pub

mykey.pub should be in the same directory and the entire .ssh2
directory and contents should have restrictive permissions (700 should
do the trick).

HTH,

might be shadow passwords, but I thought I should be able to connect
