When doing telnet/ssh to my newly set-up BSD I got : Permission denied.
Username and password _are_ correct. I suppose it has some connection
with <eol> sign
On other hosts both telnet and ssh work perfectly (please do not shout
at me for using telnet, it's isolated network ;) Only when trying to log
on myBSD (both from console and other hosts) something goes wrong.

What's all the thing about?
Regards
Michal

Your username doesn't have a UID of 0, by any chance? FreeBSD doesn't by
default allow remote logins with uid 0.

do as folow:
#cat /dev/null > /etc/hosts.allow
#echo "ALL : ALL : allow:" > /etc/hosts.allow
#cat /dev/null > /etc/login.access
#echo "+:ALL:ALL" > /etc/login.access

Great issue, in fact :))
Problem also exists with UID's other than 0.
The solution is : add hosts to host.allow and login.access.
BTW: thanks, Goblins

Thanks - one correction:
echo "ALL : ALL :allow" > ... (without : after allow)
