RE: Sha-256 support in openssh 5.0_p1 ???

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi All,
 
I have OPENSSH 5.0_P1 on my system.   (I also have  openssl 0.9.8g if
that info is useful).
 
I need to make sure that the SHA-2 algorithms (specifically SHA-256) is
supported for SSH and SFTP on my system.
 
*** Would someone be able to tell me if openssh version  5.0_P1
supports  SHA-256  or not ?
 
If not, which version of openssh does support sha-2 algorithms, e.g.
sha-256 ?? Is there any other libraries or packages that I need to
install to make sure sha-256 works for SSH and SFTP ?
 
Just FYI:  I did try modifying the  /etc/ssh/sshd_config file, and added
a line:
   MACs sha-2
 
when trying to restart sshd services  (service sshd restart), I got an
error !
 
Also tried
    MACs sha-256
 
again, got similar errors.  So I am guessing SHA-2 algorithms are not
supported in this version ?  Please shed some light...  Thanks in
advance.
