[Bug 2211] New: Too many hostbased authentication attempts
...uthentication attempts used by hostbassed authentication, so that a
reasonable number still remain for other authentication methods if
hostbased authentication fails.
A simple solution would be to add support for an ssh_config(5) option
to
limit the number of attempts, such as HostbasedMaxTries or
MaxHostbasedAuthTries. A more flexible (although more complicated to
implement) solution would be to provide a means of specifying the keys
or key types to try; e.g. HostbasedKeyTypes ecdsa,ssh-rsa.
