Do you mean that you're not seeing *any* messages from sshd in the log
file, or that sshd is logging, but that you only get messages about
authentication, but not about connections being established - this:
Jan 12 20:56:04 badkey sshd[14882]: Accepted password for waoki from 127.0.0.1 port
4075 ssh2
instead of this:
Jan 12 20:54:43 badkey sshd[14848]: Connection from 127.0.0.1 port 4074
Jan 12 20:54:43 badkey sshd[14848]: Enabling compatibility mode for protocol 2.0
Jan 12 20:54:43 badkey sshd[14848]: Failed none for waoki from 127.0.0.1 port 4074 ssh2
Jan 12 20:54:46 badkey sshd[14848]: Accepted password for waoki from 127.0.0.1 port
4074 ssh2
If so, you need to change a line in /etc/ssh/sshd_config from the
default:
LogLevel INFO
to
LogLevel VERBOSE
and restart the ssh daemon.
The name chosen for that configuration directive bothers me a bit,
because it's too easily mistaken for syslog priority level - to someone
who hasn't gone through the sshd manpage, the default configuration looks
like it means "log at 'auth.info'", not "use verbosity level 'info'".
