Just keep in mind that rsa/dsa keys would be a more secure way of
authenticating, especially with all the brute-force scripts out there.

Ohh okay that makes sense.
For everyones information, I got it to work properly. First of all,
I'm an idiot and was edited /etc/ssh/ssh_config, not
/etc/ssh/sshD_config :P
Secondly, I had to enable PasswordAuthentication yes as well as
ChallengeResponseAuthentication no
This works perfectly now. Thanks again everyone, sorry for wasting
your time.

Hi Daevid,
I tried playing around with some options in there and didn't seem to
do much, but not sure if I tried changing that specifically. I do
have a question though.. My ssh_config looks something along the
lines of this:
# Host *
# PasswordAuthentication yes
My question is, should they actually have # symbols in front as if
they're commented out? My gut is telling me no..
Thanks again

Hey all,
I've been using other distributions for a while (CentOS,
Slackware, Red Hat, etc) and finally switching to Gentoo, however
this oddness with SSH is getting to me. It seems when I SSH into
my machine it uses "keyboard interative" mode, where as I'm used
to every other distro using just "password" mode I think it is.
I'm wondering if there is any way to change this. I tried
comparing /etc/ssh/ssh_config between my CentOS machine and my
Gentoo machine, and both files are pretty much the same, and
everything is commented out anyway.
Any light someone could shed on this would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
