After much head banging on my desk, the SSH connection problem with my
one user has been solved. The problem was the user had an
"environment" file in his .ssh directory. Reading the manpage for ssh
tells me this gets sourced, if available. Two lines were calling
PATH=$PATH:/some/path. My guess is since the $PATH environment is not
set when this file gets sourced, it didn't know how to interrupt $PATH
before the actual path causing various programs to not be found.
I just thought I'd share the knowledge in case somebody else comes
across this problem.
