Hello list,

Had a concern regarding sshd on a freshly built and
cvsuped 5.3 box.  Here's whats going on.  Whenever I
try to ssh to the system from a Windows client, my
system accepts the FreeBSD SSH key, but then cannot
authenticate.

This is the message received from SecureCRT:

SecureCRT has disconnected from the server. Reason: 
Unable to authenticate using any of the configured
authentication methods.

I checked SecureCRT's configuration and it is as it
was when I was running 5.2.  I had no issues sshing. 
I took at look at /etc/ssh/sshd_config and the section
entitled Authentication, and here's what is shown on
line 38:

#Authentication:


#LoginGraceTime 2m

Is it odd for there to be nothing under
Authentication?  I don't have a 5.2 box to take a look
at to view its sshd_config file.
