James Nord updated SSHD-1264:
-----------------------------
    Attachment: sshd_log.txt

> different host key algorithm used on rekey than used for the initial 
> connection

>                 Key: SSHD-1264
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SSHD-1264
>             Project: MINA SSHD
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 2.8.0
>            Reporter: James Nord
>            Priority: Major
>         Attachments: sshd_log.txt

> when using mina as an ssh client to connect to an open ssh server the host 
> key that is negotiated on the initial connection can have a different 
> algorithm than the one used in a rekey.
> This causes an issue as connections can be terminated if the initial host key 
> type is in the known hosts, (say ecdsa) but the subsequent on (rsa) is not.
> once connected the same host key algorithm should be used in any subsequent 
> re-key events.
> (see log attached from SSHD)
> Note: this is easyish to see by setting opensshd server config `RekeyLimit 
> default 10`  which will cause a rekey after 10 seconds on a data event.
> e.g.
> {noformat}
> debug1: kex: host key algorithm: ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 [preauth]
> debug1: kex: host key algorithm: rsa-sha2-512 {noformat}
> shows the flop from an agreed exchange of {{ecdsa-sha2-nistp256}} to 
> {{rsa-sha2-512}}
