trying to upgrade from version 5. 4-2 to 6, using pve5to6 script fail returning error: "Unsupported SSH Cipher configured for root in /root/.ssh/config: 3des"

cat /root/.ssh/config
Ciphers blowfish-cbc,aes128-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes256-ctr,arcfour256,arcfour128,aes128-cbc,3des-cbc

thanks in advance for help
 
remove the file (to use the built-in default of openssh) or replace it with more modern ciphers

Hallo @fabian
i had the same error and only removed the last part ,3des-cbc
then i had a problem with arcfour

so you mean to remove the hole file ?

have a nice day
vinc

No not the file just the cipher list line so it will use defaults, or also remove arcfour

The issue is due to them being removed in Debian10
