[scponly] --enable-passwd-compat and echo'd passwords

[Kaleb Pederson]

Thanks David.  It works fine on the commandline directly, but not over ssh.... 
using bash as test's shell:

# ssh -o PreferredAuthentications=password test at localhost
test at localhost's password:
Last login: Thu Mar 24 08:05:41 2005 from localhost.localdomain
test at kinux test $ ls
echotest
test at kinux test $ ./echotest
Echoing output...
aoeu
Not Echoing output...
aoeu
test at kinux test $

Thanks.
