problems with a new account, sshd, mkpasswd, and login

The problem seems to be one of passwords, actually:  it just tells me
invalid password, even with -vvv.  But I can login with windows and cygwin
locally now, just not with ssh.  Any idea where ssh could be reading the
password incorectly?

Thanks again,
Dan

Do "ssh -vvv", typically it complains about the login dir of the user having
wrong permission. I use to set it to "chmod og-w ~newuser".
