If you can't modify sshd's config files, then, you can't modify sshd's configuration.

It doesn't look like compression's going to work, forget it for the moment and just see if you can get your cipher of choice working. I meant use blowfish-cbc on the client, not the server -- it might be called blowfish-cbc instead of just blowfish like you expected.

hmmm....

That worked fine without the -o Compression=yes

so it looks like I need to configure the file and enable the compression parameter?

Edit the file and restart sshd. Be warned that this could make it require compression and reject clients that don't use it, since it looks like your sshd doesn't support Compression=delayed. Do you absolutely need it?

Well, what sort of data are you transferring? Does it compress well?
