Hmm, I have an apology to make, since Greg did in fact follow up in private mail with a copy of his sshd_config (which, respecting his confidentiality, I won't forward to the bug, although I doubt that anything in that file is truly private). However, I just tried this sshd_config with both ssh 1:3.8.1p1-8.sarge.4 on i386 and openssh-server 1:4.2p1-6 (unreleased, but no relevant changes) on powerpc, and couldn't reproduce the problem. On 3.8.1p1, both valid and invalid usernames caused a similar delay at the "Password:" (keyboard-interactive authentication) prompt and no delay at the "[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:" (password authentication) prompt; on 4.2p1, both valid and invalid usernames caused similar delays at both prompts. So I'm no further along, really. Perhaps differing client configuration is responsible somehow?
