@aditya3098: What does the permissions look like on your new $HOME? OpenSSH can be pissy about perms with the default config, especially on the root account. (If I remember correctly, it musn't be world writeable, possibly world readable either. [EDIT: And possibly group rw either, my /root are usually chmod 700]).

Like hawhill said, the only way to be sure is to run the daemon in debug mode on the foreground (use a custom port to launch a second daemon), and a very verbose client.

You also might want to rip the dropbear or openssh binary from my K4 usbnet packages, it's patched the same way as on the K3 to accept wrong passwords and be a little less anal about perms.
