DES is supported in openssh for protocol 1 in the client with ssh -c des.
Ooops. The FreeBSD port I built from is trailing a bit: spork@tiny[~]$ ssh -V SSH Version OpenSSH_2.2.0, protocol versions 1.5/2.0. And: spork@tiny[~]$ ssh -c des 216.223.x.x Unknown cipher type 'des' However it appears newer versions include it, but warn you: oscar[/var/spool/tftp/ios]# ssh -c des -l foo 216.223.x.x Warning: use of DES is strongly discouraged due to cryptographic weaknesses foo@216.223.x.x's password: Sorry for the noise, Charles
also, does anyone curse cisco for refusing to support ssh protocol 2? they have much more resources than the openssh team.
