Hello - got a small wishlist item here: The currently available LogLevel settings (according to the man page) are: QUIET, FATAL, ERROR, INFO, VERBOSE and DEBUG. Using "INFO" causes messages about RSA key re-generation to appear in the auth logs. However using the next-lower LogLevel of "ERROR" causes client IP and port to not be reported in the auth logs. I was hoping for some level in between those two which would include remote IP and port (and protocol) but NOT include the RSA key regeneration messages. Any chance of getting a new LogLevel for this? Mainly it's because I have auth logs sent to a line printer and it uses quite a bit more paper and noise having those key gen messages logged. ;-P Thanks. -- Jim B. vader at conflict.net

Or just change the log() calls to verbose() calls in sshd.c:generate_ephemeral_server_key().
