Hi Lars,

I get only one line of output from the messages log: 

May 10 11:43:35 desktop sshd[19511]: Accepted keyboard-interactive/pam for 
ritchie from 192.168.0.2 port 56394 ssh2

PAM maybe? sshd_config on desktop has: 
UsePAM yes

Commenting this out and restarting sshd with
rcsshd restart

Still no joy. I'm afraid that I'm floundering in the dark here.
