It's because alpine has updated all openssh-server packages already. Even from EOL alpine versions.

Ahh! Wasn't working on 3.16, which does indeed have an updated package.

But, got it to work on 3.15 - which requires changing the ! to a * in the shadow file in addition to other steps (making another user with a hash, setting PermitRootLogin to yes, etc.).

oooh, that'll do it.

Didn't notice that the openssh-server-10.3_p1-r2 was released today.
