Tried to ssh to machine itself and got the following:

$ Ssh 192.168.0.5
The authenticity of host '192.168.0.5 (192.168.0.5)' can't be established.
DSA key fingerprint is 42:98:e3:11:
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? Yes
Warning: Permanently added '192.168.0.5' (DSA) to the list of known hosts.

[There was a prolonged pause here, I almost rebooted the machine]

Sep 19 18:10:00 localhost sshd[581]: fatal: Timeout before authentification
for 192.168.0.5
Connection closed by 192.168.0.5
