Subject:   Possible to get publickey fingerprint in sshd log messages?
Message-ID:  <20021011192131.GB18130@carbon.berkeley.netdot.net>

Hello,

Is there any possibility to identify which public key was accepted in sshd's
syslog messages?  Right now, it spits out something like:

Oct 11 12:06:52 barbados sshd[14112]: Accepted publickey for jimbo from 10.0.0.167 port 2411 ssh2

The problem is that I can't tell which public key was used to gain entry.
Would a public key fingerprint in this message weaken security in some way
I'm missing?

Thanks,

-nick
