Public bug reported: So I decided to test out the new ed25519 support on the new release of OpenSSH. I generated the necessary keys, added the HostKey line in sshd_config and restarted.
It does not appear to work and could be missing a compile flag somewhere. Long story short, I can generate the appropriate keys but trying to actually use it results in openssh offering ecdsa keys instead. ** Affects: openssh (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: security -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1280496 Title: ed25519 host key not working on 6.5p1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/1280496/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
