Problem when SSH-ing to FreeBSD 5.3 using PuTTY?

OG> Hi all,

OG> On two distinct machines (both running FreeBSD 5.3 release, one is the 
OG> AMD-64 version, the other is the i386 version) I am experiencing

OG> PuTTY shows the login prompt just fine, but when entering the proper

OG> times, in fact- :) ). Yet, for some reason this combination does not

OG> Does anyone know the reason for this (note: I am not starting the SSH

OG> terribly wrong? :)

OG> Thanks in advance for any answers, and cheers!

Look in /etc/ssh/sshd_conf for the setting "PasswordAuthentication" I
think the default changed from yes to no.
