Joseph Witt commented on NIFI-5816:
-----------------------------------
SSHJ is ALv2 so that is good. I've not confirmed whether it has any
dependencies and if so what they're licensing is but this is a good start.
Such a switch would require a lot of testing/verification as the SFTP
processors that depend on JSCH are extremely heavy use and for many years type
processors.
> SFTP cannot connect due to JSch limitations

> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Extensions
> Affects Versions: 1.8.0
> Reporter: Laurenceau Julien
> Priority: Minor
>
> Hi,
> The JSch library used for SFTP does not support HostKeyAlgorithms=ed25519
> whereas it is the current standard. This make SFTP / SSH unusable when
> dealing with recent openssh config.
> On dbeaver project they switched to sshj.

> One more argument against JSch is that it does not support rsa key length
> other than default (2048).
> ssh-keygen -o -t rsa -b 4096 -f id_rsa -> does not work with nifi
> ssh-keygen -t rsa -f id_rsa -> works with nifi
> Thanks and regards

> PS : sorry but I do not know nifi deep enough to fill all fields.
