Hi,

I've installed SSH Version 1.2.27 on an old Linux machine (a Slakeware distribution) and on several new machines running Suse 6.2.

With the new ones there is no problem, but on the old machine the server doesn't validate passwords in a right way, it always answers "Permission denied" though the password is correct.

What could be wrong?

just a guess: shadow passwords? hth Trema -- Johann Georg Hautzinger, email: trema@eic.at, Tel.: 531 00 1907 Erste Bank AG - OE 0423 - Orga./Entw. Treasury u. Orga.Wertpapier Boersegasse 14, 1010 Wien http://treasury.erstebank.at
