Full Discussion: Can't SSH - Connection reset by Peer
Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Can't SSH - Connection reset by Peer Post 303004199 by drysdalk on Wednesday 27th of September 2017 06:47:12 PM

Hi,

One thing that's possible here is some kind of mismatch in the supported ciphers between the client and server, but there are other possibilities too.

What would be useful is to get the SSH server debug output, and compare that with the client debug. On a "proper" *nix style environment you'd have to stop the sshd service and then manually run /usr/sbin/sshd -d -d -d as root at the shell prompt, and you'd then see the debug output in your terminal during the connection attempt. Once that exits, you could then start sshd as normal again.

I'm not sure exactly how that would translate into your Windows setup, but that's something I'd recommend as the next step anyway - get server-side debugging, and see if it sheds any more light on things.

NAME

       secsh - the Secure Shell protocol

DESCRIPTION

       secsh  is  a  protocol suite for secure remote login and other secure network services over an insecure network. It is outlined in [SECSH].
       It has three major components:

       The Transport layer protocol
	      This protocol, specified in [SECSH-TLP], provides  server  authentication,  confidentiality,  and  integrity  with  perfect  forward
	      secrecy.

       The User authentication protocol
	      This protocol, specified in [SECSH-AUTH], is used to authenticate a client to a server.

       The Connection protocol
	      This protocol, specified in [SECSH-CONN], multiplexes an encrypted tunnel into several logical channels.

IMPLEMENTATIONS

       Several implementations of the secsh protocol suite exist.

       The SSH2 product of SSH Communications Security Ltd., Finland <URL:http://www.ssh.fi> was the first. The secsh protocol suite has benefited
       a lot from their experience with their older SSH1 product, which is still in widespread use; it implements an older protocol ([SSH1]).

       The lsh suite of programs is a free implementation of the secsh protocol suite; it is distributed under the GNU General Public License.
