Hi, I've just updated to openssh 3.6.1_p2 and I notice this behaviour:

# ssh -l lcars mybox
[2 seconds delay]
lcars at mybox's password:

In the logs I have:

May  2 13:57:11 sole sshd(pam_unix)[19663]: authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=NODEVssh ruser= rhost=homer.infis.univ.trieste.it  user=lcars
May  2 13:57:13 sole sshd(pam_unix)[19665]: session opened for user lcars by (uid=817)

The first line is logged _before_ sshd prompt the password and that's the
cause of the delay since I'm not using nodelay option in system-auth.

The second one is logged after I enter the correct password.

I don't suppose that this is a correct beahviour, what do you think?

Thanks a lot.

Bye
