Description

When one (or more) RSA key(s) is(are) configured for the admin user, the "Authentication Method" option for Secure shell login (under System > Advanced > Admin Access) is ignored.

The secure shell authentication defaults to key-only mode, even with an unchecked box.

How to reproduce:
1) Uncheck "Disable password login for Secure Shell (RSA/DSA key only)" under System > Advanced > Admin Access, "Secure Shell" section.
2) Add a ssh RSA key for user "admin" in System > User Manager > Users.
3) Try to login via a ssh vlient using the key provided above `ssh `.
4) No password requested, authentication is successful.

NB: On my system, "admin" is the only configured user.
