How I could track the usage of SSH private/public keys.
What I’m looking for is there a way to detect if a user logd’in
To a server from a remote server using keys with no password

If what you are looking for is whether a user logged on using public-key or password the ssh log should show you that:
May 17 09:03:17 server sshd[27637]: Accepted publickey for user from 100.0.0.100 port 59057 ssh2May 17 09:03:17 server sshd[27637]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user user by (uid=0)May 17 12:39:23 server sshd[30250]: Accepted password for user from 200.175.33.3 port 59110 ssh2May 17 12:39:24 server sshd[30250]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user user by (uid=0)
