  All but the part about not asking questions here if their non-standard
instructions don't work for you!  Heh, moving swiftly along there ...

  I think the one localhost is enough and the -l option should have the name
only shouldn't it?  So try either

    ssh localhost -l test

or

    ssh test@localhost

but don't try adding a host part to the -l argument.  I think that'll do it.

    cheers,
