You probably mean Red Hat Enterprise, not Red Hat.  Red Hat 5.x (December
1997) is unlikely to have such a new version of OpenSSH, and Red Hat 3.x
is pretty ancient (May 1996).

Check the user's shell and make sure it's actually ksh.

If the user's shell is (for example) bash or sh or csh, this variable
won't have any effect.
