Unable to connect to the remote SSH host. class java.io.IOException The socket is EOF  

  • 1.  Unable to connect to the remote SSH host. class java.io.IOException The socket is EOF  

    Posted Jun 27, 2017 06:27 AM

    Hi All ,

     

    I have added blowfish-cbc and 3des-cbc ciphers to sshd_config file for running commands from orchestrator which is installed on windows os . As a part of hardening activity these two ciphers were removed from the file . Is there any other way to connect itpam with unix servers without blowfish-cbc and 3des-cbc ciphers ??

     

    Kindly help .

     

    Thanks,

    Anitha

    Level 2 built a hot fix to allow for OpenSSL 7.x which removes the need for the blowfish cipher.  The version is here:

    PAM 4.3SP1 HF01

     

    If interested, open a support issue and mention that you need the fix included in this version.
