Hi all, Does any know why when SSHing to a FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE box succeeds when you enter a password LONGER than the password on the system? The initial part must match the password, but it doesn't seem to matter if you just keep on typing. I assume it also has nothing to do SSH, as ProFTPd suffers from the safe symptom, but I am unable to test telnet at the moment.
