Bug 20591 – PAM authentication failures after updating to OpenSSH 3.6.1_p2

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 20404

Hi,

I recently updated to OpenSSH 3.6.1_p2. Everything works fine, but every time I
log into the machine, I get a syslog message like these:

    [sshd(pam_unix)] authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 \
        tty=NODEVssh ruser= rhost=localhost  user=root
    [sshd(pam_unix)] authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 \
        tty=NODEVssh ruser= rhost=research.cryp.to  user=simons

Curiously enough, the login is successful, though! Do you have any idea how to
fix this?
