SFTP plugins vs. Chiper protocols

Post by *Shyciii »

I use sftp plugin and working well, if I cannot use chipher "settings" (Ciphers chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com) on linux servers. So the sftp plugins doesnt support chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com, but what chiper protocols does it support?

I'm using libssh2, see the following page for the supported ciphers:
https://libssh2.org/
However, the dll I use is based on a pre-release of 2.1.11, so the GCM variants added in 2.1.11 aren't supported yet.
I would recommend aes256-ctr.

I understand. This chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com chiper is not listed there. It's strange, because the linux servers know it, and I can also connect to a linux server where this chiper is configured using Windows 10's own terminal.

THx. Enable aes256-ctr, and working. But I hope chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com will also be included in libssl2 soon, because it is much more secure.
