The problem here is:

openssh-server ships /etc/pam.d/ssh, but this above line indicates it is
looking for /etc/pam.d/sshd, and then fall back to /etc/pam.d/other.

Interesting...  I have vague recollections of this happening before, I
don't know why I didn't think of it.

I just confirmed that doing:
        * `ln -s ssh /etc/pam.d/sshd`
        * apt-get install openssh-server openssh-client
and things are working once again :)

I presume
the submitter has changed /etc/pam.d/other to reject user logins,

Indeed - I find it helps find misconfigured software :)

while in the
default case this change will simply cause things like pam_env, pam_motd,
pam_limits and pam_mail to be not-processed.

Thanks !
