The user has the wrong shell assigned to the account, which is causing the issue. The output 1 shows that the user’s shell is set to /bin/false, which is not a valid shell and will prevent the user from logging in. The output 2 shows that the user’s home directory has the correct permissions (drwxr-xr-x), and the output 3 shows that the user entered the correct password and was accepted by the SSH daemon, but the session was closed immediately due to the invalid shell. The other options are incorrect because they are not supported by the outputs. References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 13: Managing Network Services, page 413.

To unlock an account that has been locked due to login failures, the administrator can use the command pam_tally2 --user=dev2 --reset (D). This will reset the failure counter for the user “dev2” and allow the user to log in again. The other commands will not unlock the account, but either display or increase the failure count. References:
