    Hi all,
    Can someone tell me the difference between keyboard-interactive
    authentication and password authentication? They both look same to me.
    I tried uncommenting "PAMAuthenticaionViaKbdInt yes" in sshd_config but
    didn't see any difference in debug output when connecting sshd. I still see
    that it's using next authenticaion method as "password" which allows user to
    login.
    Does OpenSSH use PAM for password authentication by default? I guess, it
    does.

    Regards,
    Anurag
