Question

I am trying to connect to remote sftp server over ssh with JSch (0.1.44-1) but during \"session.connect();\" I am getting this exception:

Answer 1

The complete steps to add the algorithms to the RECEIVING server (the one you are connecting to). I'm assuming this is a Linux server.

sudo /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Add this to the file (it can be at the end):

KexAlgorithms curve25519-sha256@libssh.org,ecdh-sha2-nistp256,ecdh-sha2-nistp384,ecdh-sha2-nistp521,diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256,diffie-hellman-group14-sha1,diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1,diffie-hellman-group1-sha1

Then restart the SSH server:

sudo service sshd restart
