I am encountering some problems with ssh that are probably simple finger trouble, but....
I run ssh-host-config and say yes to everything. Then I try to connect from the localhost to the localhost (for test purposes only). Below is the output of -vvv. I have some questions 1. what is causing the connection reset? 2. what in the output below would have told me the answer to 1? 3. why do the files identity, id_rsa and id_dsa not exist?

What is different about this time?
