Hello again.

There are a few of things to try:

1. Check to see if DefaultDomain is defined to your default domain on the client machine (in your ssh2_config file). This needs to be set if the command 'hostname' returns the short name of your client machine (which implies that domain is defined in your /etc/resolv.conf). If hostname returns the long name and domain is defined in resolv.conf, strange things may happen.
2. Post the debug output of a connection attempt (for example: ssh -d 4 <ssh_server>) - then we can see what ssh thinks it is doing.
3. Run your daemon in debug mode and post that output.

Good luck.
