You know, I couldn't find that file in the source directory.

I'm not actually running PAM on this machine as is though.  What I've been
running thus far is SMB.

It is very likely a  PAM problem. I don't use Slackware, but have  
met similar problems on Redhat and configured PAM for sshd to solve  
it.

Try to build open-ssh using "--with-pam" option, and copy "Your  
open-ssh source directory"/contrib/sshd.pam.generic to  
/etc/pam.d/sshd. Modify the /etc/pam.d/sshd to match your system.

Good Luck

Alright, I've checked my AllowUsers and the users are allowed to log  
in, but
I'm still having the same problem, when it says permission denyed on the
client side it also gives me the error (publickey,password)
When I ran the SSHD client with -ddd it gave me the following when it
refused the password

debug1: userauth-request for user root service ssh-connection method
password
debug1: attempt 1 failures 1
debug2: input_userauth_request: try method password
Failed password for ROOT from 204.0.0.1 port 1058 ssh2

I've got root access turned on in the sshd conf file.

Is there any other ideas on what I could be doing wrong?

If this is your first install of openssh, check the directive
AllowUsers on sshd_config. Example, the following line will
only allow users abc, def, xyz, and fso to login.


AllowUsers      abc def xyz fso
