Hi Thanks to Gabe Turner and Jon Erickson for passing along the info on OpenSSH. It slid in like a charm. I did the cut and paste thing for the configure statement and the rest of the compilation went without an issue. In order to make up for this ease of installation, it is not allowing any logins. It just says "Permission denied, please try again". Doesn't matter if it's a mortal or not, the same response is returned. All users can login to the machine, so it doesn't seem like it's an issue there. Any ideas? Thanks again Ed Hoeffner
