I am running 4.2.9 but upgraded and still have this problem.
Normal command line connection works with PSFTP.
This does have password and key.
The log(below) points to expecting a "SSH2 ignore" bug. I don't see any of the bug options matching this name to try and disable the detection.
Error seems to be directly after "Doing startup conversation with host"
Site admin (external) is reporting that they see the login finish then immediatly close.
Because this works in PSFtp, I expect there is some setting that would need to be modified, but the errors aren't pointing a direction that seems "searchable"
Thanks,
Josh
