Hello,
I’m trying to connect to an SSH server from an RUT956. This SSH server running an older ssh-rsa
configuration (which cannot be changed at the moment). I was able to connect to it using the SSH client in the RUT950 using FW RUT9_R_00.07.02.7 (those are from past notes, but it was working).
That RUT950 has now been replaced with a newer RUT956, using FW RUT9M_R_00.07.09.1.
I now get this error:
ssh: Connection to xyz@10.0.0.2:22 exited: No matching algo hostkey
I’m guessing this has something to do with this post:
The issue is most likely caused by the change in SSH key generation. From the RUTX_R_00.07.04.3 update release notes:
- Improvement
- System
- Removed SSH RSA key generation
- Added SSH ECDSA key generation
I’ve seen suggestions to use these additional options on the command line (or to put them in a host-specific section in ~/.ssh/config
), but these don’t seem to work with the version of Dropbear SSH provided (they seem to be for OpenSSH).
Is there a way to force it to accept those host key algorithms as a client?
Thank you.
