SSH doesnt let me login (fwd)

[Debojyoti Dutta]

Thanks a lot for the help and suggestions. I am new to security
stuff. Could you  please let me know the options that I need to turn on
when I compile openssh. I am more comfortable with compiling from source
since it will help me to select my installation directories etc.
