Looks like you may have hit my typo that Tom Harvey noted in comment 78. (It's #{site} not {#site}) If that doesn't fix it, check your RUBYLIB environment variable on the server (echo $RUBYLIB) and make sure that whatever rubygems paths are in there are mirrored in mt-capistrano.rb in the RUBYLIB= statement @vvan - I am using Rails 2.1.0 as well.

A minor nitpick, though: I don't think there's actually any security benefit to making sure other users can't read ~/.ssh/authorized_keys ("public keys" can safely be made public). There's no reason NOT to chmod 600, mind you, but the security of public-key authentication in this case comes entirely from preventing WRITE access to this file (so nobody else can append their own public key), and making sure that the corresponding private key (which of course you never upload to the server) is unreadable.
