 	Try to:
su - postgres -s /bin/bash

 	and ssh to postgres at vmware-kyle4 manually. There may be several 
causes for this to happen, like the known_hosts file isn't updated 
automatically and the ssh command expects for a confirmation (you have to 
type "yes<enter>") or for some reason the ssh keys do not work (or there 
is maybe another ssh issue which you'll discover when running ssh manually 
as user postgres).
