    I installed OpenSSH on my computer that is running Mandrake 7.1. I
    can SSH into my Linux Box OK and it prompts me for my password.
    However when I enter my password, it prompts me again 2 more times and
    then finally I get a "warning: Authentication failed" error. Can
    someone help me out? Here is the command I typed in to ssh into my
    linux box:

    ssh2 -l myusername -c blowfish my.server.ip
