Although the fix above works for ssh I cannot connect with filezilla and
get the following error:

Pageant failed to answer challenge

So I removed SSL_AUTH_SOCK from .bashrc and could then connect again
with filezilla, but not ssh.

After a look around I can connect with ssh using the following format :

ssh -o PubkeyAuthentication=no   user at host.domain

This also works for scp. However, it is a pain in the butt.

If you use keys it circumvents the issue. However, not every machine I
connect to and from has keys.

I am surprised that this does not affect more people
