ssh problem: key exchange failed

feetyouwell · 02-08-2005, 11:37 AM

I can ssh to my solaris box in linux just fine, when i use ssh client in windows to connected, it give me the error msg

Quote:

"key exchanged failed"
Key exchange with the remote host failed, this could happen for example if the remote host does not support the select algorithms

I tried to change the encryption algorithm, didn't seem to take any affect?
any ideas?

Are you using PuTTY? That's the program that I use and it never lets me down.

i think i figured it out
because i am using the commercial client of ssh, however the server i am connecting is using openssh, that's why it's not compatiable
