When you try to connect to a SSH Server it exchanges a session key, you would have to give that to the server before authentication.
Like Salva said, it's far more complicated than that.

Subject: simulate connection with netcat

Hello,

my long-term intention is to write a cross-platform  GUI-authpf-client
without using libssh or libssh2. Before I get into that I'd  like to simulate
the ssh-connection/authentication via netcat.
I took a  look at the RFCs but don't get it working.

% nc 127.0.0.1  22
SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_5.2
SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_5.2<--  entered by me
... a lot of text ...

What do I enter now to  authenticate?
My attempts resulted in "Packet  corrupt".
SSH uses a binary protocol. Getting authenticated is far more complex than
writting something at your keyboard by hand.

You can find pointers to the related RFCs here:
