Hi!

I just compiled/installed openssh 3.7p1 (and 3.7.1p1) for solaris some
time ago.  It has weird behaviour.

When I run ssh <hostname> and I enter invalid password I get six
password
prompts:

using new version of openssh:
% ssh hostname
Password:
Password:
Password:
user at hosts's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
user at hosts's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
user at hosts's password:

and this is how it works on the previous version:

ssh host
user at hosts's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
user at hosts's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
user at hosts's password:


What might cause this? I compiled the same version for linux,
it doesn't do this.
