[tlug] sshd writes password in clear text into /var/log/messages

Hi!

I just noticed that sshd writes the passwords of the users which are  
logging in via ssh (auth-method is a password) in clear text into / 
var/log/messages.
Google, man page and friends didn't help. Does anyone has an idea how  
I can switch it off?
My logging-settings in the sshd_config are

# Logging
#obsoletes QuietMode and FascistLogging
SyslogFacility AUTH
LogLevel INFO

thanks in advance

Niels
