One more note about reproducing this -- I've found that pam_echo.so only prints the banner *before* the password prompt if sshd is configured with "ChallengeResponseAuthentication yes" (which we happen to have due to our CryptoCard token usage).

It turns out we are *not* using the sshd config option -- instead, we are displaying the banner using the pam_echo module, configured with the following line in /etc/pam.d/sshd:

However, I've confirmed that the problem still occurs even if I configure pam_echo.so to only display /etc/issue.net
