Description Stanislav Zidek 2015-06-30 08:47:53 EDT

Description of problem:
Since AuthenticationMethods default value is an empty list, current logic of openssh does not dump it (using "sshd -T"). This is inconsistent with other options, which are dumped, even with default values.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openssh-6.6.1p1-14.el7

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. make sure AuthenticationMethods is not in sshd_config
2. sshd -T |grep -i AuthenticationMethods

Actual results:
<empty output>

Expected results:
authenticationmethods

Additional info:
Considering low priority, we should probably wait until upstrem fixes this. See https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2398
