That's the remote machine all 4 times, it's falling back from one auth
method (keyboard-interactive) to another (password). Watch as I do this
here (intentionally getting the wrong password):
(base)adconrad at cthulhu:~$ ssh -v jerm
[...]
debug1: Next authentication method: keyboard-interactive
Password:
debug1: Authentications that can continue:
publickey,password,keyboard-interactive
