Hi,
I can normally ssh to my home computer (using password authentication), but 
today it's stopped working. The last time I did it was about 9 days ago from 
work & it worked then.
The console log shows:
Jan 19 17:04:25 daemon sshd[61084]: error: PAM: authentication error for 
imoore from firewall.

I've tried connecting from 2 different remote hosts, one at work & another 
elsewhere - same result.

When I got home today, I tried creating a new user & then ssh'ed to a remote 
machine & ssh'ed back to mine with the new username.
I was able to log in OK as the new user.

I then changed the password for my normal user & tried to ssh back with the 
new password, but I still can't login.

I'm running 5.3-RELEASE-p2. I have upgraded a few ports since ssh last worked 
- openoffice and a few bit & pieces - I'm not sure what exactly. 
I haven't altered my ipfw config in that time, nor have I upgraded the base 
system or kernel.

Can anyone think what might have caused this?

Cheers,

--
