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.

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). -D
