I'm running a standard installation of RedHat 6.2 and openssh 2.2.0p1.
Everything compiled fine, client works great, but the server seems to be
unable to authenticate connecting users. On the remote, connecting side, I
get:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
Permission denied, please try again.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
Permission denied, please try again.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
Permission denied (publickey,password).
...although I know for a fact I'm entering the correct password. The server
side, with debug, shows these lines as what I think are the pertinent
pieces:

I'll include the full debug at the end of this email, it isn't much longer.
Has anyone else had similar problems? when I say "standard" installations
of both, I mean they couldn't *be* more standard... redhat installed at
defaults, and openssh config'ed and compiled/installed with defaults. No
changes to sshd_config at all. I get the exact same problem if I ssh
localhost, so the client that was built can't connect to the server it was
built with, either.
Any help would be greatly appreciated... I've gone through the last 4
months of the mailing list archive, but I'm at work so I keep getting pulled
off of this.
Thank you!
