This is a discussion on Redundant Syslog Messages from OpenSSHD - openssh ; Ok, So when a client authenticates to sshd (the server is running OpenSSH 4.3 on OpenBSD 3.8), I'm noticing that two messages get stuck in my logs that differ only by pid.

Ok,
So when a client authenticates to sshd (the server is running OpenSSH
4.3 on OpenBSD 3.8), I'm noticing that two messages get stuck in my logs
that differ only by pid.
For example:
Jun 4 13:59:56 somehost sshd[18613]: Accepted publickey for someuser
from 192.168.4.142 port 33295 ssh2
Jun 4 13:59:56 somehost sshd[10742]: Accepted publickey for someuser
from 192.168.4.142 port 33295 ssh2
They're otherwise identical, and ipso facto redundant. I know I could
work around these redundant messages, but is it possible to suppress
their output?
Cheers,
