I doubt the remote side is causing the problems, as I"m able to connect to 
other remote hosts okay with the same SSH client.  FWIW, the client is a 
Windows 2K box using SecureCRT.  However, I get the same behaviour out of a 
simple ssh connection from my University's Solaris boxes.

It seems that everything points to my actual server being the problem, but 
I can't figure out for the life of me what it might be.  Considering I'm 
now runnign a completely open firewall (allow ip from any to any), I think 
I've completely eliminated the possibility of a firewall rule causing 
this... I'm open to field any other possibilties.
