Nate,
Thanks for the assist. That is exactly what the problem was. You know I
fell for the tcp_wrappers trap I had read a warning about when I was
configuring NFS on that server. It mentioned that particular issue,
without mentioning other services it could affect. (So foolish me, I
didn't register that problem!)
Well, you do learn something everyday. Thanks again.

this is often caused by tcp_wrappers. on the system that your trying
to login to, try adding
ALL: your_ip_address_of_the_client
to /etc/hosts.allow
you can narrow it down(see manpage on hosts.allow) if you want.
also it may be worth checking /var/log/secure it may show more info
