I would edit "/etc/syslog.conf" and add a new entry:

    auth.debug                 /var/log/authlog

(NOTE: use tabs, not spaces, to separate the fields)

Then make sure the file exists:

    touch /var/log/authlog

And refresh the syslog service:

    svcadm refresh system-log

You should start to see some entries if you "tail -F /var/log/authlog"
while trying to log in.  If you don't get the information you're
looking for, you can set "LogLevel" to "VERBOSE" or "DEBUG" or even
higher in /etc/ssh/sshd_config -- check the notes in sshd_config(5)
about how that works.

If you're not able to log in, hopefully these log messages will point at why!



Cheers.
