Delete you current sshd_config file and replace it with the below, then run
killall -HUP sshd

# This is the sshd server system-wide configuration file. See
# sshd_config(5) for more information.

# This sshd was compiled with PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin

# The strategy used for options in the default sshd_config shipped with
# OpenSSH is to specify options with their default value where
# possible, but leave them commented. Uncommented options change a
# default value.

#AddressFamily any

#at3 5-2-09 faster search lookup
search provide.org
nameserver router ip
nameserver dns ip from provider
nameserver 2nd dns ip from provider
dns router ip

after reading about sshd and the dns issue, it ran across how the resolv.conf file was configured on our proxy server. It had to change to the new dns ips provider and now ssh works fine now
