Hi,
I have FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE
I downloaded newest ports and install openssh (version 3.1)
When I generate new keys for openssh with 4096 bits, I can't connect to
server (if I generate keys with 2048 bits, it's working good)

I modified /etc/rc.network
        case ${sshd_enable} in
        [Yy][Ee][Ss])
                if [ ! -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key ]; then
                        echo ' creating ssh RSA host key';
                        /usr/bin/ssh-keygen -t rsa1 -b 4096 -N "" -f
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_key
                fi
                if [ ! -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key ]; then
                        echo ' creating ssh DSA host key';
                        /usr/bin/ssh-keygen -d -b 4096 -N "" -f
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key
                fi
                if [ ! -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key ]; then
                        echo ' creating ssh RSA host key';
                        /usr/bin/ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -N "" -f
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
                fi
                ;;
        esac

I modified /etc/ssh/sshd_config
remove support for ssh1 and allow only ssh2

when I use SecureCRT 3.4.3 or PenguinNet 1.21, I found this error in
/var/log/authlog
May  6 16:31:26 temne sshd[259]: Received disconnect from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:
9: Corrupt or nonexistent host key or al
gorithm.^M
I use normal username and password via keyboard, any keys or other
authentication methods.

Have anyone some idea why it doesn't work ?
Thanks
