ssh

Edit : I've tried inside my linksys as well with the same response as below, so I doubt it's a router issue although it could be not sure how but it could be.

I'm trying to get ssh running on my system here at home so I can actually build stuff while I'm at work. However when I try to use putty from the windoze system I have to use at work I get : Session closed by remote host.

I've checked my system very thoroughly. The sshd daemon is running, I've regenerated all my keys over and over and restarted ssh, I've even played with my ssh_config files to see if maybe I was missing something...I am however a complete networking idiot so I'm sure I screwed something up...since it's only doing what I told it to do. I am running the latest ssh as well....I got it via pacman about 30 minutes ago Any help is greatly appreciatted

here's my ssh_config

# Host *

Re: ssh
