[quote="andyseubert"]Maybe I didn't include enough details to receive support:
Version of WinSCP: 5.7.7 build 6257
Version of Windows: tested on Windows 10, Windows server 2008, Windows Vista
Mode: GUI mode not scripting
Protocol: SFTP and SCP

Reproduction steps: simply trying to connect.

Odd situation: the server is a custom implementation of "mavericks" sshtools library version 1.6.16

The issue only arose after the server side disabled the key exchange version KEX_DIFFIE_HELLMAN_GROUP1_SHA1 to guard against the logjam vulnerability

Turns out the problem was with the server side.

Sorry for any distraction from real problems or issues!

ECDH key exchange missing from SSH options

2016-03-15 18:53

From the Advanced, SSH > Key exchange dialog, the Elliptic Curve Key exchange is not listed as an option.
I don't know if this is related, but I suspect that it is..

I am receiving the error
