Apologies if this issue has already been addressed.
But it isn't plain, even using sshd -d -d -d, why function allowed_user
would return 0.
In my case, an old version of login was ignoring the expiry-date field
of /etc/shadow, but sshd was refusing access.
There are several reasons why access might be refused, and it shouldn't
be necessary to modify auth.c to print out the info - it would be nicer
to have debug statements added to the standard code.
I hesitate to submit my mods. - I'm too old to be an expert on anything
as up-to-date as C :-)
