    What is the contents of the HostKey files? They should look something like this (this example is for the ssh_host_dsa_key file):
    -----BEGIN DSA PRIVATE KEY-----

    -----END DSA PRIVATE KEY-----
    The RSA key should be somewhat longer than the DSA key.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
