Although the fix above works for ssh I cannot connect with filezilla and get the following error:
Pageant failed to answer challenge So I removed SSL_AUTH_SOCK from .bashrc and could then connect again with filezilla, but not ssh. After a look around I can connect with ssh using the following format : ssh -o PubkeyAuthentication=no [email protected] This also works for scp. However, it is a pain in the butt. If you use keys it circumvents the issue. However, not every machine I connect to and from has keys.
