Have you double-checked the permissions on your ~/.ssh directory and its
contents (particularly "config"), and run ssh and sshd with the
debugging options?  I can go from one FC3 system to another FC3 system
and back with "ssh -A" without trouble, and the beta contains the same
version of the openssh package.
