sshd maxauthtries set to one changes log behaviour
Hi folks,
I was playing around with sshd and the maxauthtries option. Tailing the log of auth.log I came upon an oddity. If one logs in with not setting of MaxAuthTries (defaults to 3) I get the following log lines: Code:
Oct 8 11:45:08 h1211164 sshd[32724]: Accepted password for user from i.p.a.d.r port 53251 ssh2 Code:
Oct 8 11:45:36 h1211164 sshd[32750]: Failed none for user from i.p.a.d.r port 53252 ssh2 What I really wonder about is why setting a certain value to a certain option changes the logging behavior of sshd? |
