Bug#275463: ssh: MaxStartups default is very low



Package: ssh
Version: 1:3.8.1p1-8

The MaxStartups defaults to 10.  In certain (not entirely esoteric)
configs (e.g. with an ssh bastion/jump off host or a wanna-build
master with > 10 buildds), it's not hard to over-run that limit in
normal use.  More to the point, it seems to make ssh ridiculously easy
to remotely DoS?
