!!! Permission denied errors
If you get an error similar to <tt>Permission denied (publickey).</tt> you probably have not put your public key into the authorized_keys file in ~/.ssh or else you may have corrupted that file.

+!!! <tt>channel ''n'': open failed: administratively prohibited: open failed</tt>

+Despite this error message, this just means it wasn't able to open a port forward. Generally this is because the address you have set for port forwarding is wrong, or the port that you are pointing to is incorrect. Check your -L or -R options for accuracy. This is also the message you'll get if your slave SSH server is running port filtering software like "Little Snitch" or have a firewall setup on the slave side.
