OpenSSH client not prompting me for password

[Al Sparks]

Strangely enough, it was set to "no", but I set it to "yes" and it still
won't give me a password prompt.

Below is the full file:

EscapeChar ~
# If this option is set to yes then the remote X11 clients will have full access
# to the local X11 display. As virtually no X11 client supports the untrusted
# mode correctly we set this to yes.
