Try to find info on the server side by either trace the sshd server with truss (on aix, strace on linux) "truss -f -p pid-of-sshd" or change LogLevel to DEBUG in the sshd conf file.

On All three LPARs

in sshd_config
LogLevel DEBUG



Code:
#whoami
root

#stopsrc -s sshd ; startsrc -s sshd


# truss -f -p pid-of-sshd
truss: 0915-021 Invalid process id: pid-of-sshd.

seems like many people have similar issues but still unresolved see here on IBM Forums https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/f...924048� and https://www.unix.com/unix-advanced-ex...n-problem.html

RESOLVED : SOLUTION : passwordless ssh

Okay, the solution for such problem would be to install the latest open ssl and open ssh and it was resolved. That version of SSH had some issues i guess.
