[CentOS] Ssh with OS X Tiger (Darwin) and CentOS 4.2

Sun Nov 20 06:09:43 UTC 2005

I did the ssh -vvv that jim suggested and seemed to reveal a lot.  However,
the problem has cleaned up on it's own.  I'll have to talk to the unix admin
and see if he tweaked anything.  However, your gssapi with mic suggestion is
correct, and the DNS problems is correct as well.  Odd thing is it all works
now.  My guess is tomorrow it won't work anymore.
