Anyway, here's my problem and hopefully someone might have a clue what's going on: I was logged in to a linux box (Mandrake 10.0) when my wireless internet connection on my client machine died. Now when I try to ssh to the server it fails. The attached output.txt file shows what happens.

The interesting messages will be in the server's debug output. See http://www.snailbook.com/faq/general-debugging.auto.html

Note: I was installing some dependencies of apache2, so I guess it's conceivable that that messed up the machine when my connection was broken.

I would guess that you installed a different version of OpenSSL that what sshd is linked with.

usually comes from bad judgement.
