.Sh NAME
Specifies the number of password prompts before giving up.
The argument to this keyword must be an integer.
The default is 3.
+.It Cm ObscureKeystrokeTiming
+Specifies whether
+.Xr ssh 1
+should try to obscure inter-keystroke timings from passive observers of
+network traffic.
+If enabled, then for interactive sessions,
+.Xr ssh 1
+will send keystrokes at fixed intervals of a few tens of milliseconds
+and will send fake keystroke packets for some time after typing ceases.
+The argument to this keyword must be
+.Cm yes ,
+.Cm no
+or an interval specifier of the form
+.Cm interval:milliseconds
+(e.g.\&
+.Cm interval:80 for 80 milliseconds).
+The default is to obscure keystrokes using a 20ms packet interval.
+Note that smaller intervals will result in higher fake keystroke packet rates.
.It Cm PasswordAuthentication
Specifies whether to use password authentication.
The argument to this keyword must be
