Ahhh! Thanks, for being MY brain, for a moment! I once knew that ;-).
You did it. I had a rule that excluded my remote system from being
allowed to connect -- or to finish connecting. Once fixed, it worked
fine!
The thing that probably derailed my own analysis is that I probably
vaguely thought I recalled that sshd provides its own security /
authentication so is not generally run under inetd, so I THOUGHT it
wouldn't have anything to do with the hosts.{allow,deny} files. Clearly
there's something I don't understand yet about all that.
Great, great! Thanks again.
