Try "ssh -2 192.168.1.101". Try "ssh -1 192.168.1.101".

This is *usually* a ssh1/ssh2 negotiation issue between the ssh client
and ssh server.

If that doesn't work, try "ssh -v 192.168.1.101" and mail us the output
of that.

It could also be a tcpwrapper problem, or a ssh config that never
automatically accepts new or changed host keys into
known_hosts/known_hosts2, or something else odd.

Also look in /var/log/messages (or /var/log/daemon.log, or
/var/log/secure.log, or wherever Mandrake hides sshd messages) and see
what the rejecting sshd server is reporting.
