If I add the line "Protocol 2" in sshd_config of server1 and "ssh -1 user@server1" from a remote server, then I got the response "Protocol major versions differ: 1 vs. 2". This is expected as incoming ssh session using version 1 is rejected by the "Protocol 2" line in sshd_config of server1. > > > > However, when I tried to disable outgoing ssh > session > > from using Version 1 by adding the line "Protocol > 2" > > in ssh_config file, it did not work. > > > > Could you give a little detail on "it did not work"? For outgoing ssh session, I added the line "Protocol 2" in the ssh_config file of server1 trying to disable ssh session using version 1 from sending out server1. >From the server1, I tried "ssh -1 user@hostname" to force it to ssh to a remote server hostname using version 1. The ssh session proceeded as normal with version 1. Hence, I could not use the same way to configure ssh_config to disable outgoing ssh session using version 1. > > > > > Is there any way > > to disable outgoing ssh session from using Version > 1? > > > > -2 on command line forces version 2 only.
