Option D
Makes sense to pick D here.
D , similar question popped up in exam reports and it's always the shell set to /bin/false that causes this exact issue.
Probably D, encountered exactly similar question in my exam, shell set to /bin/false causes this issue.
D , official study guide and practice tests both highlight shell assignment causing this kind of login issue. Seen similar Qs in labs too.
C is off here, D is the issue. The shell set to /bin/false just kills the remote session right away.
Option C
Yeah, that's D. Bin/false as the shell means SSH session closes right after login.
C vs A for me. But with /bin/false as the shell, that's a clear sign SSH will block login regardless of the password. Permissions on the home dir are fine in the screenshot I think. So D makes sense here, unless I'm missing a weird edge case.
D , because /bin/false as the shell stops any shell access so SSH immediately closes the session even if authentication works. The permissions are fine, nothing wrong there. I think D is best but happy to reconsider if I missed something.
Be respectful. No spam.
