Yes, not good news...

I've tried changing the password to a very easy one and still no luck.
The sshd config is unaltered and the process has been continually running (presumably the existing ssh session would have been lost otherwise).
Permissions in /etc/ are as follows:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.3K Dec 10 19:29 passwd
-rw------- 1 root root 1.2K Dec 10 18:29 passwd-
---------- 1 root root 510 Dec 10 19:29 gshadow
-rw------- 1 root root 486 Dec 10 18:29 gshadow-
---------- 1 root root 1007 Dec 10 19:29 shadow
-rw------- 1 root root 965 Dec 10 18:30 shadow-
