I can ssh as root into the remote
I am using "Key Authentication".
If I set "SSH Agent" I get a different error:

It seems that I have selinux error around /usr/bin/ssh.
The remote is running CentOS 7.
After disabling selinux to permissive (locally), it works.
Here is F30 bugreport
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1761071
As a side question: is it possible to see all the command issued? There is a good example in the homepage, but I don't think it is complete.
According to the downstream report linked above, it seems to have been fixed, so this ticket should be closed?
