I have just upgraded from openssh 3.7.1p1 to 3.9p1 on my Linux box. It
worked fine before, but now login attempts from localhost or a remote
machine always returns "Permission denied, please try again". Same
results for any user, even root.

Both 3.7.1 and 3.9 were compiled from source distribution, all defaults
in configure. Looking at the debug log shows nothing interesting. It's
as if I'm typing the wrong password.

Any help appreciated.
