Neil,
Try sshing into the box from itself. I suspect you will find that it
doesn't work that way either. Red Hat uses PAM, and OpenSSH appears to
be a tiny bit flaky in support of it. There are two possible reasons
this might happen. One is that you need to copy
$source/contrib/redhat/sshd.pam (or sshd.pam-7.x for 7) to
/etc/pam.d/ssh (note that the name of the file changes). If it still
doesn't work, try compiling again with "--with-md5-passwords" as a
configure option. I have 2.5.2 running fine with ssh.com clients, but I
had the same problem you are having now at first.
