OpenSSH-3.4p1 Problem

[bitwise]

I just upgraded OpenSSH on my Slackware 8.0 box and set up the priveledged user stuff; however, when I try to ssh to the box, I type in my password, and the openssh server always rejects it. Does anyone have any ideas to why this is?

Thanks,

For anyone that cares, you have to configure OpenSSH 3.4p1 a little different for Slackware. Here is the command that fixed the problem described above.

LIBS-lcrypt ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc/ssh

The "--sysconfdir" doesn't have to be /etc/ssh that is just my configure command.
