openssh unix dev - Jun 2003 - Can only ssh as root

I have an AIX 4.3.3.10 Box running Openssh 3.4. I am using Putty to get to this
Ssh server. All is good when I Ssh in using root. But when I try another user
profile I get the below:
 
Jun 16 17:22:21 walker sshd[8812]: fatal: login_get_lastlog: Cannot find account
for uid 95
 
In addition, I am kicked out of this session right now. 
 
TIA!

That's odd, AIX shouldn't be using lastlog.  Is DISABLE_LASTLOG set in
config.h?  If not try defining it and recompiling.  Also, can you try a
more recent OpenSSH version (eg 3.6.1p2)?

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.

For the benefit of the list archive, this was due to /etc/passwd not being
world-readable, and waas fixed by "chmod 644 /etc/passwd".
