The machines are remote. Also, location doesn't seem to matter.
I get the same results when the Mac is on different networks,
wired or wireless.

No IPFW rulesets on this FreeBSD machine. On my old FreeBSD
machine I did have firewall rules enabled, but I got the same
result.

On the Mac, I have the default firewall rules on but allow
ssh connections.

I'll try the tcpdump. Is that command done as follows from the Mac?:

   su
   tcpdump -Xvn remotemachine.org user and port 22
