Increasing retries (A) won't fix the root cause. Just a band-aid!

Surprised this is happening with SSH keys. They should be reliable!

Changing to password auth (B) might work too, but not ideal.

Definitely agree with C. Incorrect keys cause a lot of issues.

I think option C is the way to go. Check that private key!

I studied a similar scenario where the private key was the issue, so I think option C makes the most sense here.

I feel like increasing the retries or modifying the timeout could be useful, but I can't recall if that really addresses authentication problems.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think switching to password authentication might help if the key isn't working.

I remember something about SSH key issues from practice questions, so maybe ensuring the private key is correct could be the right move.

Okay, let me think this through. Post-reinforcement pause is the period of reduced responding after a reinforcement is delivered. I believe that's most typical of a variable ratio schedule, where the subject has to complete a varying number of responses to get the reward.
