Welcome,

on RHEL 6.1 and 6.2 beta I can see quite funny thing ...

ssh root at machine_IP
....

login as: root
Access denied
root at machine_IP's password:


First is displayed "Access denied" and then suddenly password prompt appears
... and you can login without any problem ;)
Is it just in my case?

In sshd_config file I have:
[....]
# Authentication:

#LoginGraceTime 2m
#PermitRootLogin yes
#StrictModes yes
#MaxAuthTries 6
#MaxSessions 10
[,...]
UsePAM yes
[...]
