OpenSSH and Launchpad

 

Hi all,

Just a heads up in case anybody else runs into this. I just tried to do a
'bzr pull' from Launchpad for the first time since I upgraded OpenSSH, and
got the following message:

> Unable to negotiate with 91.189.95.84:
> no matching key exchange method found.
> Their offer: diffie-hellman-group1-sha1

Turns out OpenSSH disables this key exchange algorithm by default from 7.0
onwards as it is now considered weak.

You can renable this in the ~/.ssh/config file using the instructions on
their website [1]:

    Host bazaar.launchpad.net
    KexAlgorithms +diffie-hellman-group1-sha1

Cheers
Blair
