I think you have to turn off PAM-based access, too.  I had the same
problem as Martin and used the same solution as Jamon suggested.  I
thought I had configured sshd to only allow key-based logins, but
username/password combos were being accepted until I turn off PAM,
too.  I don't remember the explanation.
