The thing is that rsync is being run - does it matter how?. I dug a bit deeper though, and turned up the debug on sshd on the server, and diffed the output. I see 'good' and 'bad' attempts are the same up to "expecting SSH2_MGG_NEWKEYS received [preauth]" but that then a login launched by NetworkManager says "Connection closed by XXX.YYY.ZZZ.??? [preauth]" while one from me logged in as root says: "SSH2_MGG_NEWKEYS received [preauth]" Does this give any clues?
