# Set this to 'yes' to enable PAM authentication, account processing,

# be allowed through the ChallengeResponseAuthentication and
# PasswordAuthentication. Depending on your PAM configuration,
# PAM authentication via ChallengeResponseAuthentication may bypass
# the setting of "PermitRootLogin without-password".
# If you just want the PAM account and session checks to run without
# PAM authentication, then enable this but set PasswordAuthentication

Curve25519: OpenSSH 6.6p1 supports Curve25519

Tested Version: OpenSSH 6.5 (Debian Jessie)

Kompatibilität

Older Linux systems won’t support SHA2
PuTTY (Windows) does not support RIPE-MD160
Curve25519, AES-GCM and UMAC are only available upstream (OpenSSH 6.6p1)
DSA host keys have been removed on purpose, the DSS standard does not support for DSA keys stronger than 1024bit [5] which is far below current standards (see section #section:keylengths)
Legacy systems can use this configuration and simply omit unsupported ciphers, key exchange algorithms and MACs

How to test

Connect a client with verbose logging enabled to the SSH server

$ ssh -vvv myserver.com

and observe the key exchange in the output.
