Gentoo Sshd
There's an app on my Android called Home Remote Control Pro. It's basically a remote-control for your phone to Windows/Mac via a custom java-server and via Linux via ssh. I initially tried the free version and eventually paid for the full version (no ads and unlimited device connections) and things were working great. Then one day it all stopped working. I could no longer connect to my Gentoo desktop and received a simple 'Auth Fail' message in the app. The app still connects fine to my Windows 10 partition and connects fine to my Ubuntu laptop (via the custom java-server and a ssh server, respectively). I've had several back and forth emails with the dev, who can't seem to reproduce the issue and when my Ubuntu laptop was able to connect it made me realize that it's a problem with my Gentoo box somewhere.

Also, the following appears in my auth.log when I try to connect:

That IP is my internal IP (statically set by the router) for my phone. My computer is statically set to *.*.*.10. I do not use a public key - this is a password login. Interestingly, I have an SSH app that connects to this same computer just fine, so there's something about the way this app is connecting that isn't agreeing with my current setup. Unfortunately, the error that's thrown appears to be fairly generic and I'm not sure how to troubleshoot farther. Any thoughts?
