Cannot ssh into ESXi 5 host

I had to do some security hardening on a host and now I cannot ssh into it.  I can revert what I have done, but I want to pinpoint what line in the sshd_config file is causing this.  I'll list out what I have:

The SSH Server is checked and running under Firewall, and ssh and ESXi shell is running on the host under Security Profile

I can login to the host via the HP Onboard Administrator, both to the DCUI and the shell

I am using putty and I set the Encryption cipher selection policy to 3DES and I tried to say the SSH protocol version was 2 only, I went back and forth with 2 only and just selecting 2

I can login to the host directly with root and with an admin account I setup, and to the shell and DCUI

I know that root is not permitted to ssh into the host since PermitRootLogin is set to no, I am trying my secondary account

I immediately receive an error "Server unexpectedly closed the network connection", so it's stopping me before I can input anything.

Lastly the ESXishelltimeout is at 900 seconds

I'm sure it's the sshd_config fie since I edited it right before I had this issue.

Thanks for any input.
