Works just fine for me.  (Indeed, it works just fine even if I add `-e
ssh`, which surprised me -- clearly I have the wrong impression of what
that `-e` argument is for!)

Looking slightly closer at the logs, this reads to me like the remote
server is closing the connection, so I expect you'll need help from
whoever provides/supports that remote server to work out why it's doing
that.
