Re: sshd: public key working, but can't get passwords working

[Daniel Griscom]

I finally figured it out. When I set up Windows, I was asked for an 
administrative password, and gave one. Then I was asked for a default 
username. I didn't know that by default Windows creates users with no 
password, and that I had to explicitly set the password for each 
user. So, that user had no password, and what I thought was the 
password, wasn't. Add a password, and password authentication works 
with sshd.

Thanks for all the help,
Dan
