This helps you for the first hop, to publichost. For the next hop, you
should have set ~/.ssh/config on publichost. And the last hop needs a
proper setting of ~/.ssh/config on intgw.

Is it the same user on all three hosts?

Please send me the reulting debug buffer. Setting tramp-verbose to 9 or
10 might be better. And I would also like to see the value of
`tramp-default-proxies-alist'.

You can send it off the list.
