SSH: Permission denied (publickey, password, keyboard-interactive)

[Andrew Alsup]

It appears that my Fedora box had mode 644 set on /dev/tty*.  I found this
out by executing the following:

ssh andy at debian    -- didn't work.
sudo ssh andy at debian     -- works!

After chmod a+rw /dev/tty* everything is working as expected.  Is it pretty
safe to have all the tty devices RW for all?

Thanks for the help,
Andy
