The output when you run the command "ssh -vv" is the log information that we're asking for. It's spit out right there on your stderr. You can then copy/paste that into a message for us to read. Now, if you're not using the (linux) command-line ssh client, it would be kind of a good idea to tell us this information (if you already did, I apologize, as I missed it). > [...] > Remote host closed connection > DH Key exchange failed > remote reset connection. > that is all I am getting . > As for my comment in another post about the fastest solution, that refers > to finding a hosting company for our office that provides server access > that does not use port 22. Using a port other than 22 has absolutely zero to do with the diffie-hellman error you are receiving. If you would run the ssh commands with higher verbosity (IIRC, minimally "-vv"), you would see the actual error. If you feel like testing this assertion out, feel free to ssh as ka...@djph.net. Also try ka...@djph.net:2022 (both are non-existant accounts). Both ports forward to the same relatively modern server (ssh version 6.7p1+), and I fully expect you to get the error: "Permission Denied (publickey)" Although, that being said, they are also running pretty limited sets of allowed ciphers/kexalgos/micalgs ... so if it is indeed your client that is old, you may get some other error, such as a Diffie-Hellman out-of-range error. Again, the proper minimal command to get the full logs for review would be ssh -vv ka...@djph.net or ssh -vv -p 2022 ka...@djph.net -- |_|O|_| Registered Linux user #585947 |_|_|O| Github: https://github.com/dpurgert |O|O|O| PGP: 05CA 9A50 3F2E 1335 4DC5 4AEE 8E11 DDF3 1279 A281
