Title:
  unable to connect or load identity file

Status in openssh package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  2 bugs are similar but not the same  at
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/1522190  and
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/1497263

  
  host A     ubuntu 14.04.3   -- running ssh-server  

  
  client B and C      

  client B 14.04.3  can connect no problem with ssh keys only to host A
  (to me this means openssh-server is fine on Host A)

  
  Client C  15.10   cannot ssh to host A,  openssh cannot or refuses to load identity files;  output of ssh -vvv below

  $ ssh  ubuntu@172.27.20.1 -vv

  ###at this point connection hangs -- sometimes i get back "ssh_exchange_identification: read: Connection reset by peer"


  permissions on files look OK to me:

  $ ls -all .ssh
  total 24
  drwx------  2 user user 4096 Jan 15 12:53 .
  drwxr-xr-x 26 user user 4096 Jan 15 12:13 ..
  -rw-r--r--  1 user user  396 Jan 15 12:53 authorized_keys
  -rw-------  1 user user 1679 Jan 14 16:15 id_rsa
  -rw-r--r--  1 user user  395 Jan 14 16:15 id_rsa.pub
  -rw-r--r--  1 user user  1094 Jan 15 12:18 known_hosts

  and home dir :
  $ ls -all /home
  drwxr-xr-x 26 user user  4096 Jan 15 12:13 user

  
  actual username replaced with "user"
