sshd get path to authorized_keys file wrong

[Barry Scott]

We are seeing an sshd_config that used to work on f12 failing on f13.

When doing ssh root at host:

Jun 10 11:34:32 f12barry sshd[23030]: debug1: temporarily_use_uid: 0/0 (e=0/0)
Jun 10 11:34:32 f12barry sshd[23030]: debug1: trying public key file //.ssh/authorized_keys

Jun 10 11:34:32 f12barry sshd[23030]: Failed publickey for root from 192.168.7.232 port 39169 ssh2

Notice the public key file is //.ssh/authorized_keys.

The sshd_config we use is:

-------------------sshd_config--------------
Port 22

    X11Forwarding yes

-------------------sshd_config--------------

Changing AuthorizedKeysFile value has no effect on the path check in the debug log.

Has sshd got a bug in it or is there more config files that need to be changed
to allow the authorized_keys to be found?
