SSH - Can't login

["Auteria W. Winzer Jr." <wwinzer at yahoo dot com>]

I've set up SSH with no problems in the past, yet when I try to log into itself 
I get the following:

# ssh -v ca53918@localhost
OpenSSH_5.6p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8o 01 Jun 2010

There's an immediate connection. The sshd service is running, and I've used both 
the ssh_user_config and ssh_host_config script to set up the environment. All 
the appropriate files look clean underneath my .ssh directory.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, and regards,
