Furthermore, I have done this from the remote system: /usr/sbin/sshd -d -d -d -p 22222 Whereupon, when I attempt to ssh logon, I get this after the third password entry: debug1: userauth-request for user mds service ssh-connection method password debug1: attempt 5 failures 5 debug2: input_userauth_request: try method password debug3: mm_auth_password entering debug3: mm_request_send entering: type 10 debug3: monitor_read: checking request 10 debug3: mm_auth_password: waiting for MONITOR_ANS_AUTHPASSWORD debug3: mm_request_receive_expect entering: type 11 debug3: mm_request_receive entering debug1: PAM password authentication failed for mds: Authentication failure debug3: mm_answer_authpassword: sending result 0 debug3: mm_request_send entering: type 11 Failed password for mds from 12.248.228.98 port 63816 ssh2 debug3: mm_request_receive entering debug3: mm_auth_password: user not authenticated Failed password for mds from 12.248.228.98 port 63816 ssh2 Connection closed by 12.248.228.98 debug1: Calling cleanup 0x806e050(0x0) debug1: Calling cleanup 0x80629f0(0x0) Other ssh logons are un-affected and function properly. I suppose that I'll have to post to the openssh mailing list. Any ideas? -- Best Regards, mds mds resource 877.596.8237 - Dare to fix things before they break . . . - Our capacity for understanding is inversely proportional to how much we think we know.
