[Bug 1666] New: sshd throws "Invalid user" for existing users sometimes

https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1666

Summary: sshd throws "Invalid user" for existing users
sometimes
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 4.2p1
Platform: ix86
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: P2
Component: sshd
AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs[at]mindrot.org
ReportedBy: karthik.rangasamy[at]wipro.com


Hi

We have around 480 users configured in one Linux(Suse 10) machine.
and the client program(ssh-client) makes ssh connection to the machine
for all the user at one stretch every 15 minutes.

but sometimes it throws the below error in the
syslog(/var/log/messages/) for some users:
Invalid user user1 from w.x.y.z

the error does not occur everytime. sometime it happens for user1...and
next time it works ok..

also the error occurs only in Suse10(openssh-4.2p1-18.38.3).This error
is not occuring in Suse 9(openssh-4.1p1-11.44).

we tried with different ssh clients but error happens with both the
clients..
Can you please let us know the reason for this error?
Is it a Bug or something related to configuration.

Thanks and Regards
Karthik
