Hi,
that explains why suddenly I cannot connect to remote console from my linux box.
I was also thinking it has something to do with BIOS upgrade.

For the record, I can connect to console again without commenting out
jdk.jar.disabledAlgorithms

but with removing 
3DES_EDE_CBC
from
jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms

few lines lower in config file (leaving rest of jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms with 
no change)

My java is 8u171-b11-1 from Debian

Libor
