Hello All,

I've d/l'd openssh-2.1.1p1 from ftp.openbsd.org today, and was trying to
install it on the system described above.  I need ssh2 compatibility,
and I can't upgrade this box to 4.0-R (crap, I can't enough cvsupit to
STABLE, don't have enough room ;), so I thought I'd try this out.  These
were the steps I did in the unpacked src directory:

jenny# ./configure --with-ipv4-default --with-ssl-dir=/usr/local/ssl
...
jenny# make && make install
...
jenny# /usr/local/bin/ssh-keygen -b 1024 -f /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_key
-N ''
...
jenny# /usr/local/bin/ssh-keygen -d -f /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_dsa_key
-N ''
...

I had previously installed openssl-0.9.5a and zlib-1.1.3 per the INSTALL
request.  All the installs went along fine.  When I tried logging on
from a remote client that is running all the same versions of programs
above (on a Solaris 7.7 box), I get a login prompt, but if I try logging
in using my user account or root, I get denied...

root@jenny's password:
Permission denied, please try again.

If I ssh from the FreeBSD box to the Solaris box, everything works.  It
seems that the FreeBSD box isn't processing the password or the login
correctly.  Can anyone offer me some advise or help on this?

TIA,

Jon
