All of a sudden I can no longer ssh into my server running CentOS 4.5
This is what happens:
[john@lt-131-jdl-f7 ~]$ ssh -Y -p 2222 192.168.0.1 john@192.168.0.1's password: Connection to 192.168.0.1 closed by remote host. Connection to 192.168.0.1 closed.
And yes, the account does exist and the password is correct!
Looking at the logs, I see this:

I've tried it on three different clients and get the same thing every time.

what does /var/log/secure say?
