Thanks Richard. The man page said:

"Verbose mode. Causes ssh to print debugging messages about its
             progress. This is helpful in debugging connection, authentica-
             tion, and configuration problems. Multiple -v options increases
             the verbosity."

What did you mean by the "..." Did you mean to put an option?

thx for you help.
