Firewall? PAM?

Both is enabled but I've local account enabled and I think there is no restriction in firewall for new added users. (How can I check it?)

I meant ftp not sftp since sftp is handeled by the same daemon like ssh, the sshd. ftpd is a different daemon.

FTP daemon is not enabled on this server and I want do so. (Because of security issues)

Can you ssh tt@localhost? I'm not capable of telling you what or how to troubleshoot PAM but PAM being enabled is, to me, a possible problem, not a solution. (PAM is wonderful if correctly configured and all that, but it's complex.)

Result: (not woriking)

Code:
root@somewhere:~# ssh tt@localhost -p 2222
tt@localhost's password:
Connection closed by 127.0.0.1

(My SSH listens on port 2222 not on 22)

That pretty much rules out firewalls as an issue. Can't really come up with anything more to investigate, except maybe try with ssh -v and if possible, running the sshd server process with verbose debugging enabled as well.
