Our Mac is on a network where most users log in via ActiveDirectory, that may be related
I am able to ssh from my machine to my MacMini (which is a build server for our iOS Developers), via ssh matt@builtbot.local
It accepts my login just fine, and I'm able to navigate around via the command line.
If I sit down at that machine and try to log in to OSX, it rejects my password.
What gives?
Until a week ago, I was always able to log in without issue.
1Check for the input source on the upper right corner. Is it set to U.S. / whatever your English keyboard layout is? Also, it's a really stupid shot, but check for snappy keys, perhaps try another keyboard? (not even mentioning the Caps Lock because it shows the indicator in the password field) – Igor Hatarist – 2014-01-31T11:02:33.223
Try changing your password to an other one through ssh using
passwd
command and try to log in again with a new one. – Igor Hatarist – 2014-01-31T11:04:43.463@IOXenus -- this fixed it! Thank you so much. If you re-post this as the answer I'll choose it as 'accepted' – Matt H. – 2014-02-04T22:59:34.103
