What about

To get and idea what could be happening.
Yea, I did that and everything was the same as root right
up to the point where it refused to take the password.
But to make things even more mysterious, it started
working when I tried again later (I don't think I could
have typed the password wrong 3 times in a row right
after having no problem typing it correctly when running
as root, but you never know).
It is often more instructive to look at /var/log/secure on the
server. The client (you) gets told to go away. The server (work)
records _why_.
Cheers,
If I'm unsure I sometimes just type the ssh password in a new terminal
or gedit page then copy and paste to the ssh terminal and hit <enter>
almost straight away. Making sure not to copy spaces before or after the
password.
Have found that freehand typing password in ssh fails occasionally.
