    Hi,

    I was actually simply trying to connect to the same computer (see ssh -1
    `hostname`) as a preliminary step.

    Anyway, I think I got the answer from Darren. Too bad I have to wait until
    I'm back to the office to check that. I was really becoming crazy. I didn't
    know there were some restrictions on the permissions for the home directory
    itself.

    Regards

    Nicolas
