ssh: Bad packet length error!

[taalebi at ai.mit.edu (Ali Taalebi)]

I did not have any problem making ssh connections to my Linux box,
running RedHat 7.2, until I rebooted it. Now I am getting 
	"Local: Bad packet length 1349676916"
when I try to ssh.

I should add that at some point before rebooting, I changed the ssh
protocol in the config file from 1,2 to only 2. 
Is that ssh error the result of protocol change?

Thanks.
