Then you can look at the FAQ:
/usr/share/doc/openssh-client/faq.html#2.7
But I doubt it gives useful information for Debian machines (everything
else should be OK). If you still don't know what's going on, it could be
a problem related to reverse DNS or FQDN (if there are inconsistencies,
this could lead to problems with the .Xauthority file). But I've never
understood exactly...
