           Summary: Password authentication fails in HP-UX trusted mode due
                    to DISABLE_SHADOW
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: -current
          Platform: HPPA
        OS/Version: HP-UX
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: sshd

Hello,

with current CVS portable OpenSSH non-PAM password authentication fails
with the system running in trusted mode. This does get an issue, because
apparently current code does not use PAM for plain old passord authentication.

The reason for failure is that password hashes are not being looked up using
getspnam, but rather from /etc/passwd even in trusted mode, because
DISABLE_SHADOW is being defined by configure for all versions of HP-UX.
