From man sshd(8):

     UseLogin
             Specifies whether login(1) is used for interactive login ses-
             sions.  The default is ``no''.  Note that login(1) is never used
             for remote command execution.  Note also, that if this is en-
             abled, X11Forwarding will be disabled because login(1) does not
             know how to handle xauth(1) cookies.
