No, that was a new security layer at work, which placed a new demand
on my SSH config.  It's all better now.

Yup.  I think I need to build on something a little more controlled 
than what I've got.  I didn't do anything other than Mandriva 
updates, but I did updates for years and I'm not certain what state 
it's in.  The newer versions of the distro seem to be better in a 
number of ways, including the update scenario.
