That helped a bunch. The debug helped me to see that the password was not matching. Lo and behold I had a shadow file defined with a hand-entered line for this user, even though shadow passwords were not being used. I cleared this file and I was able to authenticate the user just fine. Now I'm having problems with configuring the pty for this user. Can you give me any tips here?
