Hmm.
root     13415  0.0  0.9  3280  2420 ??  Ss    12:04PM    0:00.08 sshd:
isuser
isuser   702  0.0  0.7  3280  1824 ??  S     12:04PM    0:00.00 sshd: isuser
Whatever I do with finger, w, last, no trace of any activity; not even a
login.

Just to be clear here, do you see anything in /var/log/authlog?

Yes. Like
Accepted password for isuser from XXX.XX.XX.XX port 61802 ssh2

To be clear, the user exists, and logged on the last time three days ago as far as 'last' is concerned.
