Hi Mikkel,

I've checked the ssh config and it does match every other machine I have on 
the network.  Also, ForwardX11Trusted is set to yes.

Today I am on another site on my network, and have a different DHCP allocated 
IP address/subnet.  It may be a coincidence, but this morning, every server I 
have connected to today has worked every time. Yesterday it failed nearly 
every time.

The servers I was connecting to are on 10.1.0.0/16, 10.2.0.0/16 and 
10.5.0.0/16. My IP address yesterday was 10.1.1.2. My IP address today is 
10.2.1.29
