[lug] ssh -v hostname, ssh_conf is empty

[Hugh Brown]

save yourself some grief and get the openssh rpms and use them
(www.openssh.com), they have almost always worked out of the box for me.

nothing actually needs to go in your ssh_conf file unless you don't like
the defaults.

man ssh 
man sshd

should provide you with some more insight as well as a full list of items
that can go in the ssh_config and sshd_config files respectively.
