For each ssh connection you will see a privileged process running as root
and another running as the user.  E.g.

anoncvs % ps auxwwwg | g sshd
root      5181  0.0  0.0   372  1108 ??  Is    10:41PM    0:00.07 sshd: anoncvs [priv] (sshd)
anoncvs  20885  0.0  0.0   804  1376 ??  S     10:41PM    0:01.92 sshd: anoncvs@notty (sshd)
