ssh question

I have a question concerning OpenSsh 3.0.2 and 3.1 (p1) on Solaris 7 and
Solaris 8 servers. I am able to connect from machine A to machine B,
but not from machine B back to A. This occurs on only a handful of
machines, and I have not detected any pattern as for as OS level or
OpenSsh version. On all machines the /etc/ssh_config file these entries
are changed from the default:

ForwardAgent no
ForwardX11 no
UsePrivilegedPort yes
StrictHostKeyChecking no

and the etc/sshd_config these entries are changed from the default:

IgnoreRhosts no
X11Forwarding yes
X11DisplayOffset 10
PrintMotd no

the error message when I try to connect is

ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host

any ideas what else to check? TIA and I will summarize of course.
