I did the make build, moved all my files to /etc/ssh/ 
(modified them to reflect the new location) and the 
daemon loads fine, but I still get a "failed password"

error as stated in /var/log/authlog

I did apply the patch AS stated from the website, what

else could I be doing wrong. I don't think I am doing 
anything not normal otherwise.
