I am running Fedora Core 5 on a dual PIII 450 Mhz machine, 1 GB of RAM, and OpensSSH_4.3p2/Open SSL 0.9.8a...

I am experiencing odd timestamps generated from sshd. Basically whenever someone tries to login via ssh I see timestamps for the current time and then for a few hours before and then current time again. For instance, here is a sample from /var/log/messages (disregard the ellipses as I chopped out the usernames/ip addresses):

Oct 23 08:57:26 adminserver sshd[19422]: Failed password for invalid user ... ssh2 Oct 23 *04:57:30* adminserver sshd[19423]: Failed password for invalid user ... ssh2 Oct 23 08:57:30 adminserver sshd[19424]: Failed password for invalid user ... ssh2 Oct 23 *04:57:34* adminserver sshd[19425]: Failed password for invalid user ... ssh2 Oct 23 08:57:34 adminserver sshd[19426]: Failed password for invalid user ... ssh2

The above was generated by executing:

grep sshd /var/log/messages | grep Failed

Has anyone ever experienced this? Thanks ahead of time...I have spent a few weeks trying to research this and have found nothing to help me.
