Cannot SSH after upgrading!

I've been experimenting with SSH and Java, and decided to upgrade my one
server to 3.7.1p2 (OpenSSL 0.9.7c)... upon the installation, it seemed like
'make install' created new keys for this box.

This seemed to be confirmed when I tried to ssh to this box the next day,
and was told that the key for my server has changed.

To correct this, I tried deleting the key in known_hosts, and tried to SSH
into the server again... no luck!

The username/password is correct (I've tried different users, as well) but I
keep getting the following:

dcipher@neural:~$ ssh mp3box
dcipher@mp3box's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
dcipher@mp3box's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
dcipher@mp3box's password:
Permission denied (publickey,password,keyboard-interactive).

This used to work perfectly fine, and is now non-functional... why!?

Any ideas?

I've seen posts similar to this before, but I haven't yet been able to find
a solution!

Thanks,
Jeff

PS: my newsgroup server is notoriously unreliable... if you could CC me at
jweeks /at/ neuraldk /dot/ org, that would be _greatly_ appreciated!
Thanks again!
