Adding new algorithms to the Ciphers property in the ssh config file.

[patrick_taylor%aol.in@localhost]

Hi,

We need to add a new 256 bit algorithm blowfish-ctr to the Ciphers property in the ssh config file.

But, as per the manuals we have come to know that openssh supports some 256 algorithms like aes256, etc... 

But how do we add new algorithms like blowfish-ctr. Do we need to install some specific software to install the blowfish-ctr algorithm in the ssh server and enable ssh to use blowfish-ctr by editing the Ciphers property and restarting the ssh service.

We are using SOLARIS Server 5 with ssh installed and openssh installed on it. We are able to successfully use the aes256 bit algorithm.

Can you please help us in this regard?

Regards,

Patrick
