[c-nsp] ASA ssh difficulties

Tue Jul 14 10:47:54 EDT 2009

If you're trying to connect to the outside interface, be certain that
you aren't NAT'ing the ASA's public address to some inside host. The
one-to-one mapping overrides the ssh/http servers IIRC.

However, SSH is still not working.  I've verified that the username/pass is correct(it works through the ASDM) and that SSH access is allowed from the relevant IP range(I get to a password prompt), but it refuses to accept known good passwords from multiple accounts.  It thinks the password is bad, but only when done via SSH.  I haven't run into this issue with other ASAs that are configured identically and I can login to the other ASAs from the same terminal window so it shouldn't be something to do with my terminal emulation.  Any thoughts on why this may be happening?
