Looks like you're using OpenSSH-2.9 as supplied with 4-STABLE.
According to CERT (http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2002-18.html),
all that is necessary for that version is:

   ChallengeResponseAuthentication no

You're fine.

Later versions (2.9.9 - 3.4p1) should also have:

   PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt no
   UsePrivilegeSeparation yes
