Chapeau Igor! Here was the problem. I checked the "application log"
and found:
The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( sshd ) cannot be found.
The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or
message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. The
following information is part of the event: sshd : PID 3468 : starting
service `a' failed: redirect_fd: open (1, /var/log/sshd.log): 13,
Permission denied.
So I went to /var/log and saw that sshd.log belonged to the SYSTEM
account, but was not writable. Making it writable solved the problem.
Cheers!
