Thomas Wolf commented on SSHD-1114:
-----------------------------------
Yes, that would be really good. I looked at that a while ago, but it seems to
be rather difficult.
Probably passwords/passphrases should not be logged, though. Best would be if
the application had a way to get a list of messages or statuses describing the
various attempts, so that it then can decide itself what to do with the
information. Maybe log it on success, or show it to the user in case of
failure. Something like
{code}
Host www.example.org:22 authentication attempt 1: publickey ~/.ssh/id_rsa:
could not decrypt
Host www.example.org:22 authentication attempt 2: publickey ~/.ssh/id_ed25519:
rejected
Host www.example.org:22 authentication attempt 3: password **** rejected
Host www.example.org:22 authentication attempt 4: password **** success
{code}
would be really helpful.
