Enable Legacy Cipher in Linux for SecureCRT
From Free Knowledge Base- The DUCK Project: information for everyone
upporting legacy ciphers for backwards compatibility is necessary to connect "ssh" with SecureCRT. The ssh server "sshd" ciphers can be configured via the file:
vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config
See what ciphers are available on your system:
ssh -Q cipher localhost
Even though 3des-cbc is enabled in the configuration, the client using 3des-cbc is rejected, as evidence in the log
cat /var/log/auth.log
It turns out that number of version 2 ciphers have been disabled in the 6.7p1-1 release of openssh. Lets see what version of OpenSSH we have.
dpkg-query -l|grep -i openssh
Debian Linux Jessie reports openssh-server 1:6.7p1-5+deb8u3 which has the following ciphers disabled: 3des-cbc,blowfish-cbc,cast128-cbc,arcfour,arcfour128,arcfour256,aes128-cbc,aes192-cbc,aes256-cbc,rijndael-cbc@lysator.liu.se
