Hi,
Alright, last Friday I promised to let you guys know what the outcome
was of the issue where PuTTY wouldn't connect to FreeBSD 5.3.
And the winner is...:

Indeed. By default there's a line:
#PasswordAuthentication no
Changing that in:
PasswordAuthentication yes
And then performing a:
kill -s HUP <sshdpid>
Does the trick!
Tnx and cheerz,
Olafo
