SSH Elliptic Curve

Email User — Tue, 29 Dec 2020 18:38:33 GMT

I have been working on my test servers, and made some modifications to SSH security. The changes appear to be working fine in some clients, but in LogViewPlus I get the error: Error: ED25519 algorithm needs a plugin.

Does LogViewPlus support ECC? If not, can it be added?

This change has now been implemented in the latest BETA release - v2.5.7.

As discussed, this change has been implemented as an Add-On. To install the ECC Add-On:

1. Download the ECC Add-On.

2. Extract the contents of the zip file to the %AppData%\LogViewPlus\Plugins\Ecc directory. After the zip file is extracted, the Plugins\Ecc directory should contain 12 files and no folders.

3. Enable plugins and restart LogViewPlus.

The ECC Add-On does not require any additional configuration after installation.

Hope that helps,

Toby

Hi,

Thanks for bringing this issue to my attention.

This looks like an easy change on our end. I can add support for ECC as an Add-On. This will need to be downloaded an installed separately (similar to the ETW Add-On).

I will post back here when a BETA release is available for test.

Thanks again,

Toby
