Description

The ssh authentication "keyboard-interactive" method fails on 2.3.2 and 2.4

This is due to the use of UsePAM no globally in sshd_config

keyboard-interactive is more secure than plain password authentication and is preferable for environments where using only key-based authentication is impractical.

Moving UsePAM no to the code block for key-based only auth works for both cases and has the intended net effect.

To me, I have a commit pending.
