    Well it worked about right for me. Here is what I got:

[karl at k5di ~]$ ssh -v 172.16.128.128
OpenSSH_4.5p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8b 04 May 2006
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: Applying options for *
debug1: Connecting to 172.16.128.128 [172.16.128.128] port 22.

It stopped so I think your /etc/ssb/ssh_config has nothing for a * 
login. But your problems are likely in this same file, and you should look.
