Check /etc/opt/ssh/sshd_config and ssh_config for abnormal entries.

PAM configuration can be preventing this as well.

swlist -l product | grep -i pam

swverify \*

Make sure pam is correctly installed.

swlist -l product | grep -i secure
# to get openssh/ssh version which may be helpful.

1) what appears on "passwd" line in /etc/nsswitch.conf?

2) what version of hp SSH (or OpenSSH) is this?
Since shadow passwords are supported from 3.50...

3) what happens with telnet - messages from syslog?

Hi,
I think this is because of the version of the SSH package u are using. What's the version of the ssh, use A.03.50 or above versions.

could you check the permissions of the /etc/nsswitch.conf file ?

444 bin bin /etc/nsswitch.conf

ok.ssh version looks ok. but lets stick to general problem - authentication / account.you say that telnet connection dies? does it happen for root or any user? have you tried to restore back /etc/passwd and problem remained? have you tried some other kind of connection like rlogin or ftp and did it work? when you connect from the console things are ok? no /etc/securetty file ?
