Terminus struggles to connect to legacy SSH server using password authentication method

See original GitHub issue

I can’t log in to some legacy CentOS 6 servers using a stored password. (Key-based and interactive mode work fine.)

Terminus version: 1.0.135 Remote server sshd version: OpenSSH_5.3p1, OpenSSL 1.0.1e-fips 11 Feb 2013

Terminus session output

 X  All configured authentication methods failed

 SSH   X  Remote rejected opening a shell channel: Error: Not connected

 SSH  172.16.2.2: session closed
Press any key to reconnect

DevTools output:

[ssh] Server does not support auth method keyboard-interactive
[ssh] Server does not support auth method hostbased
[ssh-172.16.2.2-22]  X  Remote rejected opening a shell channel: Error: Not connected

/var/log/secure on remote server:

Apr  7 11:39:10 foohost sshd[3100]: Received disconnect from 172.16.0.1: 11:

It’s a pity because I’ve only just discovered (and fallen in love with) Terminus. Any suggestions?

In that case I cannot explain it. Apologies for the trouble. I have now upgraded to the latest release.

I don’t like bugs that “go away on their own”. It makes me nervous. 😂

Again, thank you for this excellent application.

Weird. Tabby’s SSH implementation is completely self-contained.
