deprecated options in openssh

Show all headers | View raw

Hi all,

I run openssh 7.9p1-10+deb10u2 on Debian 10.10.

Logwatch, which runs daily, occasionally (maybe 2-3 times per month) 
reports the following:

--------------------- SSHD Begin ------------------------

  Deprecated options in SSH config:
     KeyRegenerationInterval - line 28
     RSAAuthentication - line 49
     RhostsRSAAuthentication - line 57
     ServerKeyBits - line 29
     UsePrivilegeSeparation - line 25

I've checked /etc/ssh/sshd_config and the options are there but:

- they are all commented out with ## (why should I be forced to delete 
commented out lines?)
- none of these options is mentioned in any other file under /etc
- the line numbers are shifted by 2 (e.g. line 25 is in fact line 27) 
because of 2 custom lines that I added at the very beginning of the file

I've definitely restarted ssh service since making the changes.

Why is logwatch still complaining and why is it getting the line numbers 
wrong?

Regards,
Adam
