I hooked up my old server box today so that I could update the software,
only to find that I could not ssh over to it:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ ssh bullet
Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive).

There were no 'official' logs, but a website I found on google suggested
running

/usr/sbin/sshd -ddd -p 2202 

and then trying to shell over with 

ssh -p 2202 <boxname>

Here's the output.  I piped it to a file:

I tried upgrading PAM and rebooting, but it didn't solve the problem.
I'm running pam-1.0.1, if that matters...
