SSH/Bash error

     I think you're misunderstanding my problem.  I can ssh to anywhere
except localhost.  The sshd is returning the /bin/bash permission denied
when I ssh to localhost, whereas I can ssh to, say, a local campus server
and it works. Trying to ssh back to home comp does not work, however.

Programmers don't die, they just GOSUB without RETURN.
