I tried setting rhost and rhostrsa authentication to no in /etc/ssh/ssh_config. That didn't work. When I added "UsePrivilegedPorts no" to /etc/ssh/ssh_config, it gave me a syntax error. I tried using ssh -P hostname, which locked up on authenticating to host. Someone I know who uses openssh on an Alpha Linux host has the same problem, but the ports are different even for him (1024-65535). To get openssh to work on a Sparc Linux box, I set the firewall open from ports 512-1023.
