sshd talks to much

[Achim Stumpf]

Hi,   I have installed debian sarge. After the installation of a few packages I recognized that sshd is in debug mode:   Jul 21 11:21:38 a15188110 sshd[14784]: Connection from x.x.x.x port 1343 Jul 21 11:21:38 a15188110 sshd[356]: debug1: Forked child 14784.

If I check with ps aux, I see that ssh is invoked without any parameters. Could anyone tell me how to turn that off?   Thanks...
