All the sshd entries were missing from pam.conf. I cannot imagine how the heck that happened since the system (4.2) had not been upgraded since it was installed (telnet was disabled from the start) and ssh always worked fine. > Or it might be something else: does your /etc/master.passwd file list > passwords in DES or MD5 format? Most are now MD5, but a few older ones are DES. When this system was reloaded with 4.2 (had been 3.x), the existing accounts were carried over with the DES passwords in place. That has not presented any problem to us. No, the sshd problem turned out to be the missing entries in pam.conf. Where they went, I do not know.
