I forgot to add that I'm not sure why it is listening on port 50001. I'm
sure I set it up to use port 5000. If I try to use 50001:

ssh goldy@localhost -p 50001 -v
OpenSSH_4.7p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8b 04 May 2006
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: Applying options for *
debug1: Connecting to localhost [127.0.0.1] port 50001.
debug1: Connection established.
debug1: identity file /home/chippy/.ssh/identity type -1
debug1: identity file /home/chippy/.ssh/id_rsa type -1
debug1: identity file /home/chippy/.ssh/id_dsa type -1

Then I have to ctrl c to get out of this.
