Configuring an OpenSSH Server to Use the Key Exchange Methods Allowed by Command Central

Knowledge base
2

From cygwin openssh 8.8, ssh-rsa is deprecated, so command central(CC 10.7 fix 6) is not supported for openssh 8.8.

As a work around, configure the ssh server for the deprecated ssh-rsa,ssh-dss algorithms.
Add below lines in /etc/sshd_config in cygwin install directory and restart ssh service.

HostKeyAlgorithms +ssh-rsa,ssh-dss
PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes +ssh-rsa,ssh-dss
