Cannot connect |

Hi All:
Have installed KpyM and the ssh server is running on all interfaces on tcp 22. I can connect to the machine from itself to locahost:22 using putty. I cannot get a successful connection from out side the machine. Its always the same error, authentication fails. So, I get the prompt, it asks for the user ID, then PW and says authentication failed.
Not sure what to do here.
Cheers,
john

The actual message is 'Permission Denied".
Cheers,

As a test I installed the KpyM sshd on my windows7 pro VM on my gentoo linux box and it works fine.
But on our production windows 7 x64 pro systems its always "permission denied". I have tried logging in from:
1. linux open ssh from a bash console on a remote host,
2. linux putty from a remote host,
3. Windows putty to the interface IP on the local host,
4. Windows putty to localhost on the local host.
Always, permission denied.
Scratching my head here.
Cheers,
john

installed SP1, still same issue.
I can connect to the server but permission is denied after entering in the PW.
Anyone have any ideas?
Cheers,

Fixed it!
Went to Control Panel-Programs and Features and uninstalled KpyM SSHd and installed freesshd instead.
now everything works fine.
Cheers,

Hi All:
I finally figured this out.....
Our machines came from the UK so the default keyboard was the UK keyboard. For our users and admin we set the local and keyboard to US but, we didn't know we needed to change the default local to US as well..OOOooppss!
So, when you're logged in as admin on a us keyboard you make a password of say 1234@u. No you log out and try to log in again and you faithfully type 1234@ and get access denied....WTF. The issue here is that when no one is logged on, the system uses the default keyboard which is thin case is UK. No, on a USA keyboard SHIFT-2 is how you get the "@". On a UK keyboard SHIFT-2 gives you double quotes """. Ahhhhh. SHIFT-' is what gives you the @ sign on a UK keyboard. So, you need to change the default keyboard to USA and the problem goes away. The same problem happened with windows.
Kpym works fine now.
Cheers,
john
