Hi all, there seems to be an issue with dropbear on Bering uClibc 6.0.1 - trying to connect to it with putty fails with the following error:
"Couldn't agree a key exchange algorithm" It looks like the defines to enable Diffie Hellman key exchange (DROPBEAR_DH_GROUP1 and DROPBEAR_DH_GROUP14) are missing in options.h The following patch fixes the issue for me diff --git a/repo/dropbear/options.h b/repo/dropbear/options.h index 9e598ea..77e888a 100644 --- a/repo/dropbear/options.h +++ b/repo/dropbear/options.h @@ -168,6 +168,11 @@ If you test it please contact the Dropbear author */ * ECDSA above */ #define DROPBEAR_ECDH +/* Group14 (2048 bit) is recommended.
