  Hello mike.

When i log into the server with old usernames (without dashes), the 
client hangs until i kill it. No errors, nothing in the log on the 
server. At one time, a user got stuck in a loop where ssh constantly 
opened sessions, and closed sessions for the user.

When i log on with a new username (with dashes), it looks as if it goes 
through the logon process on the client, then just closes again, 
returning to the login screen. The server log shows the following:

i'm using ubuntu 11.10 64-bit on both server and client side. i've 
tested from different networks (onsite network, and mobile 3g modem). 
I'm using the stable client, tried on both windows and ubuntu, and the 
nightly-build server
