I am attempting to get two hosts to talk with each other using Open-SSH.
The server is configured to not accept passwords, only key exchange, and
root login is permitted.
When I run the client in verbose mode the dialog indicates that both
publickey and password authentication is available.
When I run the server in debug mode all looks well until the client
attempts to authenticate. At this point I get the following error
messages. It appears that my problem might lie in the first 3 lines:
[...]
debug: userauth-request for user root service ssh-connection method none
debug: Starting up PAM with username "root"
Failed none for ROOT from 203.41.237.83 port 1022 ssh2

Cluestick anyone?
