There is no "debian based container" standard. Talk to whoever
built your container.  (Why isn't it you?)

fail2ban can be adjusted in /etc/fail2ban/jail.local -- set

fail2ban: default 5 attemps == 1 SSH client connection?

[Steffen Dettmer]

Hi,

I encountered multiple times that debian based containers use fail2ban by
default with a max attempt value of 5, even for SSH logins using strong
asymmetric keys.

(Again I just got locked out for 1h (fortunately a container, so I can
access anyway). Do you know what happened? My SSH key agent asked whether
to allow the key signing request, I accidentally said No, skipped the
password queries by pressing enter and tried again and it timed out
(according to my count that were 4 failures, but fail2ban banned my IP and
config file said it would ban after 5). Maybe I should be glad that the
default action is just 1hr ban, and not to secure-erase rootfs and brick
the main board (*).)

I would like to understand how it was possible to get such default values.
They are good to help to implement denial of service attacks, but not
suited for production. Does anybody really think it is of any help to limit
strong pub key authentication after 5 tries? Ohh, and my connection is from
the LAN. I don't know if this is a debian default.

Any hints (links) why this is included at all and where the defaults come
from appreciated!

Steffen

(*) I know I should be careful with such jokes, as someone might like and
implement it. Activated by default, of course.

Just to compare, when Red Hat released 9.0 maybe 2 years ago (9.2 is
current until 30 June) they disabled by default many older key-lengths and
algorithms in SSL that were known to be weak. This caused issues for
existing installations. You could either re-enable the weaker methods (easy
but a pain to figure out courtesy of RH's layers of administration) or bite
the bullet and re-key.

Indeed NEWS.Debian.gz links
  PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms +ssh-rsa
to RSA/SHA1.
This is the explanation why the message does not say that ssh-rsa is
disabled and why the web is so unclear about the ssh-rsa hash algorithm.

So the Debian 12 client really offered the RSA key but not in a way the
Debian 8 server could handle.
The ssh -v messages have a line

  debug1: Remote protocol version 2.0, remote software version OpenSSH_6.7p1

NEWS.Debian.gz says

If I am not mistaken, the problem you are experiencing is due to using
RSA/SHA-1 on the old machine. The RSA modulus is large enough, but the
hash is weak. That change happened at OpenSSH 8.9.

`ssh -vvv` should show the ciphers offered by the server and client.
It should look something like:

[solved] Re: No login with Debian 12 ssh client, ssh-rsa key, Debian 8 sshd

[Thomas Schmitt]

Hi,

the following line in ~/.ssh/config did the trick:

  PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms +ssh-rsa

This lets ssh -v report:

  debug1: Offering public key: /home/.../.ssh/id_rsa RSA SHA256:...
  debug1: Server accepts key: /home/.../.ssh/id_rsa RSA SHA256:...
  Authenticated to ... ([...]:22) using "publickey".

and leads to a shell session on the Debian 8 machine.

So the mere message
  debug1: Offering public key: /home/.../.ssh/id_rsa RSA SHA256:...
does not mean that RSA would be acceptable on the client side.
It would be nice if the refusal message would be somewhat clearer than
  debug1: send_pubkey_test: no mutual signature algorithm

The first field of the output is the key length in bits (for RSA keys,

No login with Debian 12 ssh client, ssh-rsa key, Debian 8 sshd

[Thomas Schmitt]

Hi,

i still have network access to a Debian 8 system, to which i logged in
from Debian 11 via ssh and a ssh-rsa key. After the upgrade to Debian 12
ssh fails with this public key authentication.
The probably relevant messages from a run of ssh -vvv are:

  debug1: Offering public key: /home/.../.ssh/id_rsa RSA SHA256:...
  debug1: send_pubkey_test: no mutual signature algorithm

To my luck, the old sshd already supports ssh-ed25519 and i was able to
add the content of the Debian 12 id_ed25519.pub to the Debian 8 file
.ssh/authorized_keys2 . Now ssh to the Debian 8 machine works again.


But i find this error message "no mutual signature algorithm" strange.
The Debian 12 ssh client is obviously willing to try ssh-rsa.
The Debian 8 sshd accepted that key from Debian 11. Why not from 12 ?


In
  https://www.openssh.com/releasenotes.html
i find for 9.2 or older only a RequiredRSASize directive of which
man sshd_config says the default is 1024.
The ssh-rsa key was generated by Debian 10. man ssh-keygen of buster
says the default of option -b with RSA was 2048.
(Does anybody know how to analyze a key file in regard to such
parameters ?)

In the web i find the reverse problem, i.e. older machine cannot ssh to
Debian 12, because ssh-rsa would now be disabled by default.


Have a nice day :)

Darac is right, "Kitty Cat".  I also use PuTTY as an SSH client to connect
to Debian systems.  This is unrelated to your question, but I thought that
I would take this opportunity to pass on some tips for getting the most out
of PuTTY when used with a Debian host, based on my experience.

(1) The default locale on Debian systems is usually a UTF-8 locale.  For 
example,
en_US.UTF-8 for U.S. systems.  PuTTY should be set accordingly.

   Window -> Translation

Then, in the drop-down box under "Remote character set", select UTF-8.
Also, make sure that the "Use Unicode line drawing code points" radio
button is selected on the same screen.

(2) Assuming that you are running PuTTY under Windows, many Windows fonts
are incomplete.  Most of the fixed-width fonts are missing some of the
characters that are used in manual pages.  As a result, a hollow box
will appear in their place.  On my Windows machine at work, the only
installed font that I could find that would display a hyphen correctly
is Consolas.  An internet post I read also suggested DejaVu Sans Mono,
but I couldn't try it because it is not installed in my machine.
In PuTTY configuration, select

   Window -> Appearance

Then change the font.  Experiment with different fonts.  Display a
man page that has hyphens, such as

   man fstab

and see which fonts display a hyphen and which display a box.  Go
with one which displays the hyphen correctly.  I'd try Consolas first,
then see if you can find another one that's superior to Consolas.

(3) You want the Debian host to know what terminal type you have for
optimum performance.  I recommend using

   Connection -> Data -> Terminal type string : xterm-utf8

(This last setting cannot be changed on the fly.  It can only be set
in PuTTY configuration when there is no active session.)  There is
also a terminal type string "putty" that you can use, but then you lose
the xterm window title strings capability.  Don't use xterm, because
that implies that PuTTY will support VT100 box-drawing escape sequences,
which it won't in UTF-8 mode.  xterm-utf8 tells the host to translate
VT100 box-drawing escape sequences into equivalent UTF-8 sequences.
But it can still use the xterm window title commands, which PuTTY does
support, even in UTF-8 mode.

I hope this is helpful.

Mind you, if the proxy is just a http proxy and does not support the

The perl script available at

will help you. See the comments in the script for details of the
required ssh client configuration. If I understand your requirements

Description: Telnet/SSH client for X
 This is the Unix port of the popular Windows ssh client, PuTTY. It 
supports flexible terminal setup, mid-session reconfiguration using 
Ctrl-rightclick, multiple X11 authentication protocols, and various 
other interesting things not provided by ssh in an xterm.

I agree on the waste of space thing, however:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ apt-cache search putty
vbox3 - voice response system for isdn4linux
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$

Seems there is no putty package in Woody, so you would have to compile 
it or get it from somewhere else.

I don't know about Sarge or Sid, but if you use Woody you are only asked
if you want to run the ssh server. You cannot deinstall it without
deinstalling the client as well - they are in the same package.

ssh client and ssh server

[Lawrence Lee]

I want to install ssh on an old laptop that has a small hard drive. My
problem is that I think the ssh server is huge, so I just want to install
ssh client. I don't just want to disable the server, but i don't want it
to install ssh server, to save space. I tried googling, but nothing
relavant came up. Is that because you need ssh server for ssh client? Kind
of like you need x-server for x-window?

Perhaps the package kio-fish would help then?

It works quite well for me, simulating a remote filesystem via
a ssh connection.

I knew it was there, but I thought it required XFree86/Cygwin. I am
pleasantly surprised to find that it does not, and simply appears in
its own top-level Win32 frame if X is not running. Nice. Now I have to
figure out how to configure it (~/.Xresources, I assume?). At the very
least, I want the scroll bar on the right, the colors set to white text
on black, a larger window, and a nicer font. "man rxvt", I suppose.

Thanks.

Then, you want a GUI for scp, not for ssh, I suppose. As the manpage
says, ssh is a remote login program, not a file transfer program.

Not much. Configuration dialog boxes, mostly. I use PuTTY on Win32

really, it's hard to me to understand what exactly should do a gui for
ssh.

maybe you need a way to launch gui apps via ssh? if so, you just need
the -X switch.

Try xterm-color.  Should give you the right key mapping and nice
colors.  It also depends on the terminal definitions on the remote
server, but this terminal definition is pretty standard.

I used to use putty, but now cygwin includes openssh, so I use that.

Re: What windows ssh client you use?

If you go to the TeraTerm website at
http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA002416/teraterm.html you'll find a
tgz'ed terminfo file for TeraTerm.  This includs a terminfo file and a
keyboard.cnf and instructions for setting things up, but I've found
that if you just set your terminal type to "Linux" in Teraterm and use
the keyboard.cnf file, everything works.

ssh client for windows

Hi.  I've now concluded that my timeout problem was with PuTTY.  I'm using
SecureCRT now and have left it idle for more than hour without being
disconnected.  Many thanks to those who responded!

I don't think I can do that since anything going to port 80, 8080 are blocked
from PIX and have to come only from a particular ip address which is the M$

   Same problem here with my Linux box and our M$ proxy that's why I
   have to do apt updates via ftp only.  All HTTP requests are blocked
   and have to go via the proxy.  My initial solution would be to use
   Samba and that's what I'm testing now.

I get around this by running WebWasher.com on my Windows machine. This
lets you set the Windows box up as a web proxy which the Linux machine
can access. You get http this way at least.

The down side is you also leave your proxy open to anyone else in the
office by doing this, so depending on how much you trust your
co-workers...

Yeah I have that too and it also timeouts.  Maybe Debian is doing it? If it
does then I still can't find it.

   Another good (and free) client is the TTSSH extension to TeraTerm. 


Any of these Win clients let other machines see mapped ports?

SecureCRT only lets localhost; don't see a way to change that. Want to
let a Linux box see mapped ports since it can't get out through work's
MSProxy server.

Re: What windows ssh client you use?

[Joel Dinel]

I use SecureCRT under Win32. It does a lot more than just SSH, but it's not 
freeware...

Could be either.  If it's a high-latency connection, you may be getting
a timeout, though I'm not sure where that's configured.

There are several java ssh clients which run inside Netscape (or IE)
which you might want to play with as well.  Try searching Google.

What windows ssh client you use?

[Rino Mardo]

I'm using PuTTY from windows to ssh to my debian box but I find that it
disconnects my session after some idle time.

Is it a ssh setting (coz I can't find it) or it's my ssh client?

I've used SecureCRT, but it is pay-for-ware. Currently, I 
use TeraTerm PRO, a freeware product with support for
SSH through a plugin. I had to go to 3-4 sites to get
the various encryption components (damn ITAR), and I
don't have the relevant URLs handy. I could send you
a ZIP file via email, though.

Re: ssh client

[Carl Mummert]

There is a program named 'tera term' that has an ssh extension,
surprisingly known as 'tera term ssh'.

The url is http://www.zip.com.au/~roca/ttssh.html

You have to download two files: the tera term regular executable,
and the ssh extention.  More info is available through the above link.

I am using that program as I write this; the terminal emulation is on par
with commercial implementations (much better than the awful telnet.exe
that comes with windows), and the ssh works fine.  I have used both
RSA and password authentication from Windows 95, 98, and NT to a Linux box,
and never had any problems.

ssh client

[Chad A. Adlawan]

hello all,
  this is not a debian specific question, but does anyone know of an ssh client 
for Win9x/NT that i can use to connect to my ssh ONLY enabled debian server ?
  i need this as i dont have a linux box at home.
TIA,
Chad
