   Thanks, Don. I keep forgetting about the verbose debug switch. Here's some
output:

debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS
debug2: set_newkeys: mode 0
debug1: SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS received
debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_REQUEST sent
debug2: service_accept: ssh-userauth
debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT received
debug2: key: /home/rshepard/.ssh/id_rsa ((nil))
debug2: key: /home/rshepard/.ssh/id_dsa (0x808b6d0)

   Looking at this, it seems that the originating host sent a public key, but
the attempt failed to be completed. Is this correct?
