Re: Problem when SSH-ing to FreeBSD 5.3 using PuTTY?
Hi, Alright, last Friday I promised to let you guys know what the outcome was of the issue where PuTTY wouldn't connect to FreeBSD 5.3. And the winner is...: Look in /etc/ssh/sshd_conf for the setting PasswordAuthentication I think the default changed from yes to no. HExren Indeed. By default there's a line: #PasswordAuthentication no Changing that in: PasswordAuthentication yes And then performing a: kill -s HUP sshdpid Does the trick!

Problem when SSH-ing to FreeBSD 5.3 using PuTTY?
Hi all, On two distinct machines (both running FreeBSD 5.3 release, one is the AMD-64 version, the other is the i386 version) I am experiencing problems when trying to SSH to the machine using PuTTY. PuTTY shows the login prompt just fine, but when entering the proper username/password (yes, I am positive I typed it correctly -multiple times, in fact- :) ). Yet, for some reason this combination does not seem to get accepted. Does anyone know the reason for this (note: I am not starting the SSH daemon from inetd)? Is there perhaps some (new) setting that changed between 5.2.1 and 5.3 that causes this, or am I doing something else terribly wrong? :) Thanks in advance for any answers, and cheers!

Also is anything shown up in the syslogs? Are you sure the host is not in the deny list? Last but not the least, I would prefer a S/Key authentication more than a normal interactive password based authentication. Have you tried that? Regards S.

Re: Problem when SSH-ing to FreeBSD 5.3 using PuTTY?
Hi Jon, You did not state the version of Putty you are using. Hmmm, good one. I just checked and it is version 0.50. Try the latest version, (release 0.56) I beleive. There was a problem in earlier versions of Putty with keyboard-interactive method of authentication. I'll give that a shot. It's quite interesting that it would work with fbsd 5.2.1 (and earlier) and not with fbsd 5.3, but it might indeed be the culprit. Either way: after the weekend I shall let you guys know what the culprit was. :) Cheerz and 'ave a good weekend!
