All, Hi, this is probably a dumb newbie question but I searched all over and can not find an answer. I have sshd set up on my server, and all I want is just username/password authentication, but all I can seem to get when I log on from another computer is a password prompt. And it will only accept the root password (with PermitRootLogin yes, if set to no it will not work - and I don't want root to be able to log on). How to I get the username prompt?
