All of a sudden I can no longer ssh into my server running CentOS 4.5

This is what happens:

[john@lt-131-jdl-f7 ~]$ ssh -Y -p 2222 192.168.0.1
john@xxxxxxxxxxx's password:
Connection to 192.168.0.1 closed by remote host.
Connection to 192.168.0.1 closed.

And yes, the account does exist and the password is correct!

Looking at the logs, I see this:

Jun 7 18:51:37 moray1 sshd(pam_unix)[11348]: authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=NODEVssh ruser= rhost=192.168.0.209 user=john Jun 7 18:51:46 moray1 sshd[11348]: Accepted password for john from ::ffff:192.168.0.209 port 57755 ssh2 Jun 7 18:51:46 moray1 sshd(pam_unix)[11352]: session opened for user john by (uid=500) Jun 7 18:51:46 moray1 pam_loginuid[11352]: set_loginuid failed opening loginuid Jun 7 18:51:46 moray1 pam_loginuid[11352]: set_loginuid failed
Does any of this make sense?

I've tried it on three different clients and get the same thing every time.

JDL

Jun 7 18:51:46 moray1 sshd[11352]: fatal: PAM session setup failed[14]: Cannot make/remove an entry for the specified session

what does /var/log/secure say?
