Okay, that's a very convenient place to start. From the server
itself, you must have been using a different ssh client (probably the
one in the FreeBSD base system), so you can rule out blaming putty.
>From the server, use ssh(1) with increased verbosity ("-v" or even
"-vvv") and see what it says. Most likely, though, you will need to
increase the verbosity of the ssh *server* and see what it's
complaining about in the connection. The most convenient (IMO) way to
do this is to shut down your existing ssh server and start a new one
from the command line with the "-d" (or even "-ddd") option.
