The configuration directive is UsePrivilegedPort, not Useprivileged, so
it's understandable that ssh wouldn't recognize it.  RhostsAuthentication
can also only be used with protocol 1, and at least in 2.9, protocol 2 is
the default.  Try adding "-1" or "-o 'protocol 1'" to your ssh invocation,
and see if that helps.
