I think I see the problem with ssh logins on the 622. I looked inside the firmware, and saw that they changed the permissions on /dev/ptmx, but didn't change the /etc/fstab file to mount /dev/pts using gid=5. This breaks ssh logins, as I previously described in post #12 in this thread. I was afraid that @Seneca would convince them of making that change. Drat!
