Update to stable openssh-3.8.1_p1-r1 2. ssh to a machine on network as user 3. Actual Results:
Try to restart sshd on the box you're trying to connect to. From what version did you upgrade?
The previous version, it was some time ago, but I thought it was a fluke, then it happened on *all* machines on network, no matter from/where I connect to. Restarting obviously has no effect, and I can ssh only as root. This works: sudo ssh hackeron@laptop (sudo runs a command as root) This doent: ssh hackeron@laptop

As noted in http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=102463&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight= your /dev/tty might have the wrong permissions, please post the output of "ls -l /dev/tty"

There's your problem, do a chmod 0666 /dev/tty to fix the problem.
Seems this is a udev bug then.. Udev should be changed to set the correct permissions. So this bug is not fixed, just a temporary solution given, which is fine. So changing to minor, but permissions should be fixed for udev.
reassigning..
Permissions have been fixed on udev for a while now, please make sure you have the latest release.
