Just notice an error that I've never seen

Dec  1 03:27:37 mx sshd[743]: Accepted password for mxadmin from 192.168.3.3 
port 4321 ssh2

What does "Failed none " means ?
It means that somebody tries to use authentication method called "none" and
failed to authenticate this way. Since this "somebody" use the same host and
port as on 03:27:37 most probably it is your client first try to authenticate
this way.
