Well, if there are any other suggestions I'd like to hear those as well.

I looked in /etc/ssh and there were no .rpmnew files, only the new versions
of files the updated ssh packages had put there. I already had the right
config files.

Just to be sure, I removed all of my SSH RPMS, and then deleted by hand the
/etc/ssh directory. Then I installed again all of the new SSH packages.

I still cannot login via ssh. I can login via telnet, so I know it's not
my password!

Any ideas on where else to look?
