Apparently it depends on the source of the SSH connections:
 if the source of the ssh login is VMS with TCPIP services, then the real
VMS user name appears in SYS$REM_ID, no sign of SSH.
 if login from other systems (in my case RH Linux), then yes, SSH_hexid is
there.
Probably TCPIP services SSH is doing some (private ?) protocol to get the
remote user name.
