Hi All,

I am logging on to a branded Cisco router and I get this as a response:
===================================================
OpenSSH_4.5p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8d 28 Sep 2006
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: Connecting to <domain_name> [XX.XXX.XXX.XX] port 22.
debug1: Connection established.

===================================================

What does this mean?

 " Remote protocol version 2.0, remote software version RomCliSecure_4.12
   debug1: no match: RomCliSecure_4.12 "

I am running net-misc/openssh-4.5_p1-r1.

That's in compat.c, l.58ff. (4.6pl1). There's a table with
server/application specific quirks. As it's written in the debug
output: There's no match for your SSH server's ID string.

As always, debug messages tend to be only understandable if you know a
bit of the application's code.

Thanks HWH,

So there's nothing that I would need to do client wise to make my gentoo box 
communicate 'better' with the server?  This is almost a rhetorical question, 
because I am not sure I can define 'better'.  I just ask to see if there is 
any setting client-wise that will improve compatibility.

It sounds like if your router had 'quirks', then yes your could improve
compatibility.  your router plays nicely with others already, so
there's no need to treat it special.

In regards to ssh-ing into Cisco routers, just be happy it actually 
works. :-) It wasn't that long ago that they barely supported protocol 1 
  and interoperating with openssh was "interesting".
