SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_6.6.1 


harvey AT samsung350 ~ 
$ ssh 127.0.0.1 
Connection closed by 127.0.0.1 


I have no authorized_keys file which is fine. I am allowing PasswordAuthentication and also PubKeyAuthentication on the server.
My password is not empty.

It is not prompting me for any password. It just straight away says "connection closed by 127.0.0.1"

I don't have any other computers on the network that I can try from at the moment.
