	It should be :

auth            required        pam_nologin.so          no_warn
auth            sufficient      pam_opie.so             no_warn no_fake_prompts
auth            requisite       pam_opieaccess.so       no_warn allow_local
auth            required        pam_unix.so             no_warn try_first_pass

account         required        pam_login_access.so
account         required        pam_unix.so

session         required        pam_permit.so

password        required        pam_unix.so             no_warn try_first_pass 

	That seems to be the default on the client side, and I know I
didn't change it on the server side.

	:( It claims :

debug1: authentications that can continue: publickey,keyboard-interactive
debug3: start over, passed a different list publickey,keyboard-interactive
debug3: preferred password
debug1: no more auth methods to try
Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive).

	If I could, yea. Unfortunately just not able to due to other
circumstances.

	Ok, thanks.
