Hello, I have: SSH-1.5-OpenSSH_2.3.1p1 I find that this client displays error when I specify (from command line), '-c' [cipher] for SSH1. {for SSH2 looks okay}. Thus, if I specify: ./ssh -v -l user -c des -1 host or ./ssh -v -l user -c 3des -1 host I get error: bad cipher des [des] or error: bad cipher 3des [3des] respectively.... and client immediately exits ! But, this is okay: ./ssh -v -l user -c 3des-cbc -2 host looks fine. Any suggestions ? Thank you, Sunil.
