Whenever I see Snap, I get suspicious. You should probably ask on the ubuntu-users list. The list has a person that answers Snap questions. <[email protected]>. You should also show the SSH connection log for the client and server. I think that's 'ssh -vvv' for the client, and 'journalctl -u ssh' for the server. Jeff
