Description Marc Recht 2003-01-24 06:20:22 UTC

With the default /etc/pam.d/sshd no login is possible. Copying /etc/pam.d/gdm to
/etc/pam.d/sshd solved that problem for me.. (tested with openssh 3.5p1 and
3.5p1-r1)

please verify that you really arent experiencing the problem found under chapter 4

No, I can login as user locally. And OpenSSH works as soon as I replace the
portage pam.d/sshd file (at the moment I use that from gdm). So, it has to be
the sshd file. It's the only file I changed to get OpenSSH working..

i'm not talking locally i mean logging in via ssh ... 
 
as for it 'having to be ssh' i highly doubt thats the source of the problem due to the fact ive 
never seen anyone else report with this problem ...

you're right my user hadn't a valid shell entry in /etc/passwd.. Though I have
absolutly no idea how this could have happened.. Anyway, the OpenSSH (and it's
pam.d/ssh) works fine...
