Thanks, I suspect that it is something in our environment that is causing this.  Specifically, how do I use the strace tool in this context?  Can I substitute the 'ssh' command with 'strace ssh' command?

Thanks,
Matt

Every so often (~ 1.5% of the time, but enough to cause our automated tests to fail), admin privileges are not granted.  Perhaps there is some setting in the /etc/sshd_config file that we need to change.

I tried the above loop several thousand times now.  I'm not able to
reproduce the effect.  I'm getting always admin privs.  It would
perhaps help to get an strace of a failing sshd.
