in thread Net::OpenSSH connection failing with 'muxserver_listen bind(): Not owner'

That statx calls are done by the script process, checking for the UNIX domain socket to appear, but in some place there should be another call from the forked ssh process doing a bind call that fails.

Anyway, what permissions has $HOMEDIR/.libnet-openssh-perl/?

    Yea, I missed the forked call to the bind. It's here:

    Nothing stands out to me as a possible previous error that might be causing the bind error. I did see the following repeating error in another process that may also be related: 

    477272: kioctl(3, 22528, 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000)113710

    Seems like that'd be expected though since ssh is being run through a Perl module.

    Permissions on .libnet-openssh-perl are set to 700.

      AIX truss may accept some option to make it also dump syscall arguments (as those passed to bind). Otherwise a debugger could be used to inspect them, but this is quite more difficult.

      Calling SSH with the verbose flag may also give some useful information: 

      $ssh=Net::OpenSSH->new($host, master_opts => '-vvv',...)

      Finally, witch version of OpenSSH are you using?

[d/l]

        I don't see any option for truss that would dump the arguments.

        Verbose doesn't offer any new help: 

        debug1: Authentication succeeded (keyboard-interactive).
