SSH User can't log in.
I created a new user for someone to log in with but the account can't never log in. I changed the sshd_config, I gave it a password, he is in the passwd file. I can see him in webmin and account is enabled, tried adding to a group and still can't log in.
Running Solaris 8 2/02 Sparc.
Every time I try to log in through ssh I get access denied.

Check shell the /etc/passwd file.
grep user /etc/passwd
it seems like noshell,
change it in /etc/passwd file
it ll work.
