I don't know what Timothy thinks he is doing, since
the sage** users have password login totally disabled:

server4:$1$930823p9lENrsv$EHH6O8szVcckWIYXGRtVQ/:13685:0:99999:7:::
sage1:!:13685:0:99999:7:::
sage2:!:13691:0:99999:7:::
sage3:!:13691:0:99999:7:::
sage4:!:13691:0:99999:7:::
...

The server logs into each sagei account using ssh RSA keys, which
are stored in

   /home/sage**/.ssh/authorized_keys

I just fixed the permissions, so the sage** user can't mess up their
own authorized_keys file.
