      MSGID: 1:275/201.30@fidonet 601ca7e0       PID: CNet PRO 5.21b       On Wed 4-Mar-2020 7:01p, Ron Lauzon@1:275/89.0 said to Caco Byte:                     RL> CB> Hello everybody! I'm having a little trouble connecting to some of my       RL> CB> favourite BBS using SSH in Syncterm 1.1b.       RL> CB> I doesn't apply to every BBS I try to connect but in many cases I       RL> have       RL> CB> this strange error message afterwards:              What version of Syncterm are you using? I may be using a older version and my       SSH is working fine here.                     RL> I haven't seen that when I use SyncTerm, but I only use Telnet.              RL> The error has to do with trying to set up the SSH connection.              RL> "ECDH" is "Elliptic-curve Diffie-Hellman" and it's a method for 2 systems       RL> to       RL> exchange a key without transmitting the key in the clear. So that's why       RL> you       RL> only see it with ssh. Telnet isn't encrypted. Ssh is.              That is why I switched to using SSH. Some of the issues that only happens when       I am using Syncterm is it will loose the mouse pointer and the login macro       stop working. The only to fix it the issue is to restart Syncterm.       --- CNet/5        * Origin: 1:275/201.0 (1:275/201.30)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/0 19/36 20/4609 90/1 105/81 106/201 114/705 116/18       SEEN-BY: 120/302 331 340 123/120 131 140 129/305 153/250 7715 218/700       SEEN-BY: 220/70 222/2 226/17 30 100 227/114 702 229/101 200 424 426       SEEN-BY: 229/550 664 1016 1017 230/150 152 240/5832 249/206 317 400       SEEN-BY: 250/1 5 8 261/38 100 266/512 267/155 800 275/0 89 91 93 98       SEEN-BY: 275/99 100 101 201 301 282/1031 1056 1060 291/100 111 298/25       SEEN-BY: 305/3 317/3 320/119 219 322/757 340/400 1000 341/66 342/200       SEEN-BY: 396/45 633/280 640/1321 1384 712/620 848 770/1 100 330 340       SEEN-BY: 772/210 220 230 801/161 189 2320/105 3634/12 5020/715 1042       PATH: 275/201 100 261/38 712/848 770/1 317/3 229/426           |
