Also, if you can, you can shut down sshd at the remote end and run an
sshd -d to watch your connection come in. This is a surefire way to
pick up on authentication problems but often not very feasible since
other people use the remote machine.

The usual problem I expect is this;
A is to ssh to B, but B doesn't know A's key fingerprint.
