I was having the same problem w/ 3.4p1 based on suse's 3.3p1 srpm. I first tried adding --with-md5-passwords to the configure call in the openssh spec file. When that failed I grabbed the 8.0 srpms for pam and rebuild those. Now it works. For the pam update, running: rpm --rebuild pam-modules-2002.3.9-31.src.rpm works fine, but pam-0.75-199.src.rpm needs a bit of a tweak. I kludged it differently, but this process ought to succeed: # save the below-inlined patch to a file FOOBAR rpm -i pam-0.75-199.src.rpm cd /usr/src/packages/SOURCES patch --verbose
