            Bug ID: 3832
           Summary: [PATCH] typo: MaxStartups instead of Maxstartups
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 10.0p2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5

patch

With commit 81c1099d ("upstream: Add a facility to sshd(8) to penalise
particular") the do_log2 function was reworked. Before, log messages
read like the following:

 drop connection #10 from ... on ... past MaxStartups

Now sshd logs this:

 drop connection #11 from ... on ... Maxstartups

That tripped one of my log file monitors and I was wondering why
"MaxStartups" has been renamed to "Maxstartups" (with a
lower-case s),
but the sshd_config configuration option is still called
"MaxStartups".

If not intentional, I propose the small patch attached.

Thanks,
C.
