I got this problem when I upgraded one of my boxes to woody -- the
potato box and the win boxes (with putty) couldn't connect.  I also
couldn't ssh to localhost!  I then started looking at how to generate
keys, since with debug messages turned on it seemed that the new sshd
wanted a key somewhere.  After using ssh-keygen to create RSA and DSA
and ssh1 keys in my home directory everything seems cool.  I didn't
even need to copy the keys over to the client boxes.  (Now I need to
do some research, but for now "it works" is good enough)

I didn't have a RH box to try with, but none of the boxes I have could
ssh into my woody box for a while (see above).
