Hi, Could anyone pls help by telling me how the DH pubkey from the server (f) is encoded when it is sent back to me? I understand that it comes across as an mpint, but after I decode the mpint into the bytes that make up the number, what does this number represent? Is it a X509 encoded key? Or is it something else? The reason for my question: I am trying to write a ssh client in Java,

I am working on a port of Openssh 3.8p1 after already having done a port of Openssh 3.5p1. There are a couple of new lines in buffer_get_bignum2() that are causing me problems: if (len > 0 && (bin[0] & 0x80)) fatal("buffer_get_bignum2: negative numbers not supported"); The "& 0x80" check is not relevant in ebcdic. Does anyone
