@ -2469,6 +2469,21 @@ unwanted username prompts, you could try checking this option.
This option only affects SSH-2 connections. SSH-1 connections always
require an authentication step.
\S{config-ssh-banner} \q{Display pre-authentication banner}
\cfg{winhelp-topic}{ssh.auth.banner}
SSH-2 servers can provide a message for clients to display to the
prospective user before the user logs in; this is sometimes known as a
pre-authentication \q{\i{banner}}. Typically this is used to provide
information about the server and legal notices.
By default, PuTTY displays this message before prompting for a
password or similar credentials (although, unfortunately, not before
prompting for a login name, due to the nature of the protocol design).
By unchecking this option, display of the banner can be suppressed
entirely.
