Hi Niels and Everybody,
A user reported a problem connecting to a SSH-2.0-Sun_SSH_1.0
French server, which sends about 250 (!) supported encodings in
its KEXINIT packet, and results in the error message:
lsh: Protocol error: Invalid KEXINIT message.
After a bit of research, in "lsh-1.4.2/src/keyexchange.c",
there's an interesting comment:
/* Arbitrary limit on list length */
#define KEXINIT_MAX_ALGORITMS 47
which seems to be the reason for this failure, as increasing
it to 1024 (arbitrary too!) fixed the error.
In case this happens to someone else...
Best Regards,
- Jean-Pierre.
