SSH Connection

Hi,

I am trying to connect to a DB using an SSH connection. I have created the keys and I can connect great using PuTTY.

When I try to connect from dbForge I get the error:

Can't connect to SSH server on 'xx.xx.xx.xx': Server does not support hmac-sha1 for mac.

Can anyone shed some light on this for me please?

Thanks.

Could you please send us the sshd_config file and the result of the following command being executed in the console:

Code: Select all

sshd -T
You can send a reply straight to our support system at supportATdevartDOTcom and alexaATdevartDOTcom

If you use "MACs" option in "sshd_config" file, add in this line "hmac-sha1" option. I had the same problem and this option solved my problem.

In all fairness, I find it quite sad that what is probably the best db manangement tool I have seen for MySQL relies on the deprecated SHA1.

I have to ask my clients to add this to the sshd_conf where SHA1 is by default now replaced with SHA2-512 or SHA2-256. Some of them have a right go at me as all the other tools they use seem to work fine without it.

We are planning to support SHA2-512 or SHA2-256 in the next product version.
