I am changing the login authentication method from password to keyboard interactive for security purposes. I know this option is kind of add-on for ssh client programs; which explains the best info about option is in this link: User Authentication with Keyboard-Interactive
One of the servers is AIX; and althoguh I have done many combination it keeps giving me the error saying unable to authenticate using methods which includes keyboard-interactive.
1) The server is AIX5.3
2) ssh -v
OpenSSH_4.3p2, OpenSSL 0.9.7l 28 Sep 2006
3) no LDAP
4) no xml configuration file for ssh like ssh-server-config.xml; so no LAM
5) $OpenBSD: sshd_config,v 1.73
My configuration is basically as follows;
If there is anyone who can help me, it is appreciated. There may be a version supporting keyboard-interactive or a parameter that doesn't show up in man for sshd_config. Maybe, I should change ssh_config file which is all commented. There is /etc/pam.conf without any line with ssh-server-g3. Do u have any recommendation?

ssh-keysign
SSH-KEYSIGN(8) BSD System Manager's Manual SSH-KEYSIGN(8)NAME
ssh-keysign -- ssh helper program for host-based authentication
SYNOPSIS
ssh-keysign
DESCRIPTION
ssh-keysign is used by ssh(1) to access the local host keys and generate the digital signature required during host-based authentication with
SSH protocol version 2.
ssh-keysign is disabled by default and can only be enabled in the global client configuration file /etc/ssh/ssh_config by setting
EnableSSHKeysign to ``yes''.
ssh-keysign is not intended to be invoked by the user, but from ssh(1). See ssh(1) and sshd(8) for more information about host-based authen-
tication.
FILES
/etc/ssh/ssh_config
Controls whether ssh-keysign is enabled.
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key, /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
These files contain the private parts of the host keys used to generate the digital signature. They should be owned by root, read-
able only by root, and not accessible to others. Since they are readable only by root, ssh-keysign must be set-uid root if host-
based authentication is used.
SEE ALSO ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1), ssh_config(5), sshd(8)HISTORY
ssh-keysign first appeared in OpenBSD 3.2.
