[Bug 1052707] Re: ssh client ignores PasswordAuthentication no

[rakslice]

FYI: apport-collect takes a binary package, so I had to run:
apport-collect -p openssh-client 1052707

The server is FreeBSD 7.3 amd64, apparently running the sshd:
$ /usr/sbin/sshd -v
sshd: illegal option -- v
OpenSSH_5.1p1 FreeBSD-20080901, OpenSSL 0.9.8e 23 Feb 2007

I can't repro this with an Ubuntu 12.04 server, so there is likely a
server issue involved. Am I mistaken in thinking that the effect of
PasswordAuthentication=no should be independent of the server version?
