Max, You're a genius. I did have Viruscan 7 installed but not the firewall. Everything works perfectly now with it uninstalled. I guess I'll have to go with Norton Antivirus. There isn't by chance a workaround for the McAfee Viruscan problem, is there?
I did a search in the mailing list for "McAfee sshd" and saw Campbell Fethers post detailing this problem and solution. Can't believe I missed it before.

McAfee 7 has apparently caused a problem like this for someone in the past. Do you use it?
