Does it work when you log in by other means (such as a console login or an X login)? Please also show your /etc/pam.d/ssh config. I know there are some problems with PAM session handling in general, because there are some modules that need root privileges for what they do while other modules specifically need to run in the session process as the target user; but given your comments on the configuration changes you've made, it sounds more to me like pam_mkhomedir just isn't getting called. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
