I wouldn't call it "wrong", necessarily. what ssh client are you using? does it attempt to use authentication-type "none" in order to get a list of supported authentication types from the server? or because it only wants to prompt you for a password if authentication is required?
perhaps "confusing" or "misleading" would be a better description for this entry. -ken On Fri, Jun 4, 2010 at 7:11 AM, Dexter Tomisson <dexterto...@gmail.com>wrote: > my steps: > > login as: root > t...@xx.xx.xx.xx's password: [valid password entered] > [logged in] > # exit > > sshd log output: > > Jun 4 12:03:12 sys sshd[1235]: Connection from MY.IP.AD.DR port 3894 > Jun 4 12:03:15 sys sshd[1235]: Failed none for root from MY.IP.AD.DR port > 3894 ssh2 > Jun 4 12:03:17 sys sshd[1235]: Accepted password for root from MY.IP.AD.DR > port 3894 ssh2 > Jun 4 12:03:19 sys sshd[1235]: Connection closed by MY.IP.AD.DR > Jun 4 12:03:19 sys sshd[1235]: Transferred: sent 3784, received 1928 bytes > Jun 4 12:03:19 sys sshd[1235]: Closing connection to MY.IP.AD.DR port 3894 > > I don't see any reason why i get "Failed none for root from" alert.
