If I ssh from an internal machine, I get the login prompt, but after typing a username, I am never asked for a password...
I have this problem every now and then when I setup a machine on my local 192.168.0.0/24 network. There are a few ways to solve this.
1) modify /etc/ssh/sshd_config and change "#UsePrivilegeSeparation yes" to "UsePrivilegeSeparation no" and kill and restart sshd 2) modify /etc/hosts and list the ip addresses of the machines you'll be connecting from
The problem is that with privilege separation enabled, sometimes the sshd daemon tries to lookup the hostname of the computer you're connecting from, and it can't, so it hangs and times out. I usually try #2 first, and if that doesn't work, I'll disable privilege separation, which always fixes the problem.
