SSH_BUG_SIGBLOB?

[Jeff Grady]

Here are the details of my connection attempt:

my computer:
[jgrady at blarg jgrady]$ ssh -V
SSH Version OpenSSH_2.3.0p1, protocol versions 1.5/2.0.
Compiled with SSL (0x0090581f).

university server:
bash$ ssh -V
ssh: SSH Secure Shell 2.3.0 (non-commercial version) on mips-sgi-irix6.5

and the verbose output of my connection attempt:

[jgrady at blarg jgrady]$ ssh -v xxxxxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

...and there it dies.

Any help or comments is greatly appreciated.  Please let me know if there are
any questions about my system configuration or the server's.
