"ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host"
???

the /etc/hosts.deny on the server contains a PARANOID - which i argue
is unecessary for ssh can well handle that stuff by itself and inetd
shouldn't be running anyway.

(the actual reason is that the client computer does not match forward
 and reverse host mapping in both ways.)
