If he didn?t specifically set PAM authentication up, I can?t see PAM
being the issue. An Ubuntu server install with webmin would have the PAM
modules, but they have to be configured.

hmm. i don't know much about pam. but google turned this up:
http://forums.zybez.net/topic/1413358-pam-opensshd/
one thing them mention is a UsePAM option in sshd config.
also are you using non-standard ports?

which log should I peek at?
(Webmin gets me access to anything I could get to from the cli - just with
a gui on it. It is great for some things but a PIA for other things I just
want a shell for.)

well - no
I believe OpenSSH is set to deny root remote login.
Even more, as this is an Ubuntu box, I am not sure what the root password
is - I have only ever sudo'ed
I think I will have to sit down at the console to see for certain, but
there is nothing in Webmin's User and Groups module that leads me to believe
I should need a new password - and the other server I stood up the same day
(back on '07) hasn't complained about anything.
I think it is something deeper - with PAM or something? not clear what PAM
does exactly, though, so not sure there...
