SSH login not allowed Openbsd 6.1

[nultvalue]

After downloading the HPN patch (7.5) & openSSH (7.5p1) and compiling under a generic build of OpenBsd 6.1, ssh logins do not work. I did a standard ./configure , make , make install (after applying the patch).
After the install when an existing (or new) user attempts to login I get "Permission denied, please try again."

The last build I did of this on was OpenBsd 5.8 and didn't have to do anything in particular outside of the above mentioned (./configure/ make/ make install).

If you need additional information etc. , please let me know and I will provide it for you.
