I'm prepared to be wrong here but, aren't the hosts.* configs just for inetd
/ xinetd and (possibly) portmap? And, IIRC, ssh installs as an init script
on debian?

I know all that. But it still will ask for a password if you do not have the

That's the only thing I could find that might be doing it as I went through

In the /etc/logrotate.d/mysql-server file there is a /usr/bin/mysqladmin

the server?
