Hello,

I'm attempting to run Jsch as a client while using the SunPKCS11 NSS JCE in 
FIPS mode.  As soon as I attempt to connect, I get an exception:

java.security.ProviderException: Could not derive key
  at 
sun.security.pkcs11.P11KeyAgreement.engineGenerateSecret(P11KeyAgreement.java:204)

Caused by: sun.security.pkcs11.wrapper.PKCS11Exception: CKR_ATTRIBUTE_SENSITIVE

sun.security.pkcs11.P11KeyAgreement.engineGenerateSecret(P11KeyAgreement.java:198)
…

It appears that the PKCS11 provider is throwing this because it doesn't want to 
let "sensitive" data, like a private key, out of it's grip, even though this is 
just part of the DH exchange.

Has anyone been able to make Jsch work in this configuration?

Thanks,
