1) In sshd_config you write the criteria names with a starting capital letter, in ssh_config all lower case... not sure which one you actually prefer, but perhaps that should be aligned.


2) From https://lists.mindrot.org/pipermail/openssh-unix-dev/2015-February/033526.html I'd assume that the criteria negation also works in sshd_config? It's however only documented in ssh_config.

Attached patch applies on current git master (e.g. using git am).



Thanks,
Chris.

Actually... I've just seen that the !critera syntax doesn't seem to work at all in 8.8?
