Hello,

I have just installed version ssh version 3.2.01, enabled and added a user as per the instructions. Rebooted the box, just to make sure all new settings have taken affect. However whne I try to login via ssh as the new user I get an authentication error. Root via ssh is fine. Any ideas?

Hello,

Well I have found the problem. It seems when the user was created by the web interface it did not set the shell and default directory, these were set to /dev/null. I have corrected, that and now I can login via ssh using password auth... next is to get certs working.
