Using an alternate ssh version [message #1076130]

Hello,

I am attempting to connect to a remote linux kernal using the Target Management Terminal. When I set up the connection for SSH and try to connect I get "wrong version" as an error. I know this is because the target is using SSH version 1 and I am using SSH version 2. I was wondering if there was a way to make the Target Management Terminal use version 1 like you can in a regular terminal by using the "-1" ssh flag.

Thanks,

Matthew

The TM Terminal uses the JCraft JSch library which supports SSH2 only:
http://jcraft.com/jsch/

Your options to make it work include:
- Connect by telnet instead
- Open a Local Terminal and in that local terminal run your commandline ssh -1
- Install dropbear on the target for ssh2 support
- Connect through some sort of proxy on some host (People have successfully used
netcat (nc) to map remote serial ports on some network port for TCP/IP Telnet
access)

Actually, if you are on a Linux host, the "Local Terminal" approach should work nicely : You can create a Local Terminal Launch that directly launches your "ssh -1" command so it would feel just like an ssh terminal.

Unfortunately the TM project's local terminal works on Linux/UNIX only because there's no PTY support on Windows. I don't know if Mac would work.
