We finally received an answer on this from the networking component vendor.

For some reason, this version of the SSH server is not indicating that it will accept password authentication. Instead, it's asking for interactive authentication (e.g.: something entered from the keyboard), and the component isn't expecting this. There is a workaround:

In the /etc/sshd_config file there is a line like:

#PasswordAuthentication no

If you change it to:

PasswordAuthentication yes

(remove the # at the beginning and change no to yes), it should resolve the problem. Apparently the default value of this setting changed with a Mac OS X update.

The vendor will also update the component to emulate the interactive authentication so that things will work with either setting value, and we will incorporate this into a future release of Visual Build.
