If you are pulling from a linux machine you may want to check this file:

/etc/ssh/ssh_config

To make sure you aren't setting your default SSH port to something other than 22. Some people get confused between that file and:

/etc/ssh/sshd_config

When they're setting up servers to a non-standard SSH port.
