problem with login

[Mildred Frisco]

Hi,

I've installed the latest version of dropbear (0.45) compiled from
buildroot.  It was cross-compiled for an arm9 board. I connect to the
dropbear server from an ssh client. from the messages, it seems that
it was able to connect to the server but cannot get past
authentication. I can't even get a login prompt.

here's the log from the client pc:

[mildred at localhost mildred]$ ssh -vv 192.168.63.15

the log from /var/log/messages regarding dropbear:
Dec 31 17:01:29 cyclops authpriv.info dropbear[69]: Child connection
from 192.168.63.95:37049

I don't know what's wrong. I was able to run openssh and telnet
servers successfully, even login as root.  I chose /dev/urandom in
options.h when I compiled it and --disable-openpty.

Is there anything else I forgot?

Thanks in advance.
