I just figured out that when setting "UsePrivilegeSeparation" to "no"
in sshd_config, also sshd on Debian/woody logs 

sshd[xxx]: Failed <auth-method> for illegal user <user> from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port 
xxxxx ssh2

But with PrivilegeSeparation turned on, the username is not logged.

However, sshd from Debian/sarge also logs the illegal usernames with
PrivilegeSeparation turned on.


So I wonder if you do not use PrivilegeSeparation on your woody
installations?
