I have tried every suggest I could so far, with no success.

How would I determine the answer to that question?

I replied: I guess that must be true. How can I fix that?
'sshd_config' is identical on 73 and on 68 and ssh and scp
both work on 68 but neither work on 73.
The contents of sshd_config can be viewed at this link:

I did examine those logs (17,000 lines in the last 4 days)
but I don't know what to look for.

I've uploaded those two logs (secure & messages) here:

When I try: ssh localhost on '73' this is the result:
joe at 192.168.0.73's password: (I entered the correct user password)
Permission denied, please try again.
joe at 192.168.0.73's password: (I entered the correct root password)
Permission denied, please try again.
joe at 192.168.0.73's password: (I tried just pressing "Enter")
Permission denied (publickey,password,keyboard-interactive).
I've uploaded /var/log/auth.log and the grep joe result here:
http://www.upquick.com/linux/temp/auth.log73 -- (10,000 entries)
http://www.upquick.com/linux/temp/auth.log73.joe -- (16 entries)
I also tried changing the user password on 73 and the system
responded that the several passwords that I tried to enter were
not acceptable (too short, not enough different characters, etc.)
When I do 'ssh localhost' on '68' it asks for a password and
accepts the same password that I have set on both '68' and '73'
