Hi all,
New guy here...

I'm trying to set up remote debugging for a remote target (embedded Linux system).
Here is my setup:

Development: I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 loaded on a vmWare Player virtual machine on Windows7, and am using eclipse Indigo on this Ubuntu virtual machine.

Problem: I can't connect to the remote target through the eclipse RSE connection. I've set up the connection for ssh only (eclipse new connection) and get the following error when I try to connect:

"RSEG1066 Failed to connect sshd on <the remote IP address>"
and the Details window shows: "Algorithm negotiation fail"

The frustrating thing is that I am able to connect through a Linux shell terminal to the remote using: ssh root@<remote IP address>.
I can also connect to the remote using Putty (ssh).

So ssh works from the shell but not through eclipse!!!
I've done hours of Internet searching and can't find a fix

Anybody got any ideas on this??

Thanks,
J

Hi, I am running into this issue myself. The remote system that I had been connected to has been updated with a policy change that requires AES192 or AES256 encryption. Since the update to the new system I am unable to connect and receive the RSEG1066 Error: failed to connect sshd on 'remote server' - Algorithm negotiation fail. How do I alter the security encryption for AES256 or AES194, so that I can connect to the remote system via the remote system explorer?

Please Help.
