BTW, the remote host runs SSH commercial version and I am using OpenSSH. I
exported the keys to the commercial version's format and since the home
directory is shared and NFS mounted, it works. Also the name of the home
directory changes from machine to machine i.e on some it is
/home/cs/student/kitty and on others it is /apt[1-5]/cs/student/kitty. But
I did check that I was able to get a login shell without entering any
password and it worked.

Sure, I will check out and see if I am able to reproduce the problem.
