Below is how it looks from the client if there are seven keys in the
agent and the server is set for MaxAuthTries of 6 and the seventh key is
the one that is needed.  For this example, there are no keys in ~/.ssh/
on the client, the extra keys were loaded from another location and the
resident key was loaded into the agent directly from the hardware token.
