check your /etc/hosts if you see what I put in bold that is what closed you down.
try commenting it out. see if that effects anything.

localhost should be 127.0.0.1 but ::1 shut you down not 127.0.0.1.

for some reason your ssh is loging into ::1

my hosts file shows old host set up commented out and the ::1 is localhost and ip6-localhost.

Code:

#<ip-address>                <hostname.domain.org>        <hostname>

#127.0.0.1                localhost.localdomain        localhost

#::1                        localhost.localdomain        localhost ip6-localhost





127.0.0.1              voided.brainwave.bw    brainwave.bw 

::1                    voided.brainwave.bw    voided ip6-localhost



127.0.1.1              voided.mybrain.bw      mybrain.bw

:1:1                    voided.mybrain.bw      voided ip6-localhost

when I try my ssh

Code:

%userx@voided ~>>$sudo ssh userx@mybrain.bw

userx@mybrain.bw's password: 

channel 0: open failed: administratively prohibited: open failed

Last login: Thu Feb 18 19:39:18 2016 from 127.0.0.1

%userx@voided ~>>$exit

logout

Connection to mybrain.bw closed.

%userx@voided ~>>$

I use sudo for tunneling because I was having a tunneling error.

though you should check your logs to see if that underline part had anything to do with it too.

it looks like it was

looking for another authentication from a publickey for some reason then that ::1 took over then shut you down for its reasons.... logs got a check them I suppose ...
