RE: No local user authentication with openssh2.9
I ran into the same problem a while back. Make sure you 'cp
<openssh-source>/contrib/sshd.pam.generic /etc/pam.d/ssh' (or it may
need to be /etc/pam.d/sshd, I forget offhand). Restart sshd and it
should work fine.
Or if you'd rather use the debian ssh pam file, install openssh1, copy
the /etc/pam.d/ssh file, remove openssh1, compile and install openssh2,
and copy the pam file back to /etc/pam.d (I don't know if the pam files
are different, so use your best judgement :)

Subject: No local user authentication with openssh2.9
Dear List,
I am having a great deal of problem setting up openssh-2.9 in my debian
setup. Can anyone tell me why any of my local users don't get
authenticated when using openssh. It works fine when I use ssh 3.01
btw. If anyone can help me make the switch it would be greatly
appreciated.
Here is a snippet of a session I started (daemon + client info)
