When I try to ssh into localhost, it accepts the public key and immediately closes the connection. I've been going through pages of Google results for hours now with no progress. Here's what I get after ssh -v user@localhost:

I'm running OSX 10.8, using ssh through Terminal.

This is usually the result of a packet filter or NAT device timing out your TCP connection due to inactivity. For security, reason most enterprises only use SSH protocol version 2. This problem only occurred with version 2.
This message indicates that the load on Git Fusion exceeds the MaxStartups value set in the sshd_config file. Adjust this setting to resolve this issue; we recommend a minimum value of at least 100. The sshd_config file is normally located in the directory /etc/ssh/sshd_config .
Okay, so what finally worked was explicitly allowing connections from user. Setting System Prefs > Sharing > Remote Login > Allow access for: to All Users doesn't work; instead I had to check Only these users: and manually add all users. Hope this helps anyone else having the same problem.
