 this change, I could successfully connect to this box via my SSH client.
 
 I did the same thing with the second box, but I cannot login via my SSH
 client.  I get an invalid password error, and Failed password also appears
 on the server in /var/log/auth.log.  I have rebooted, and also
 reinstalled, to no avail.  Any idea as to what could be causing this error?

A bad password?  That would be easy to check.

Otherwise, increase the logging verbosity of sshd, and let it tell you
why it's unhappy.
