You're dead right - it is on OS-X, and it must be some kind of exotic 
interaction issue, because I don't get it going from the same OS-X box 
to a different Linux box, nor do I get it going from that Linux box to 
the original Linux box. Hmm - that might be confusing so

Box		OS				SSH		

A		OS-X 10.3.9 		OpenSSH_3.6.1p1+CAN-2004-0175
B		Ubuntu Breezy		OpenSSH_3.9p1
C		RHEL 3			OpenSSH_3.6.1p2

and I ONLY see the error when establishing a connection from A to B - 
other combinations of these 3 boxes don't show the error.

Now that you mention it, every other instance of this error I looked at 
when googling mentioned OS-X so as it is having no practical effect, I 
intend to waste no more time on it.
