[SOLVED] new ssh client can't connect to old servers

Hi,
I have some old servers and I can't connect after update to: OpenSSH_9.3p1, OpenSSL 3.0.8 7 Feb 2023

I added:

   PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms +ssh-rsa
   PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes +ssh-rsa
   HostKeyAlgorithms +ssh-rsa

but it's not help.

I tried connect to another old server where I using "RSA PRIVATE KEY" not "OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY" and I connected ok... I copied my private key to this old server where is OpenSSH_7.9p1, OpenSSL 1.0.2u  20 Dec 2019 and I connect without problems to my old servers from this old server...

Can anyone help, pls?

Probably not what you want to hear, but for the love of God, upgrade those servers or take them offline.

I know... I'll do it soon... but ... is there some solution for this? It will be much easier upgrade if I can connect from my Archlinux...

No idea whether that's still supported and in any event it's not a long-term solution!!
In doubt you'll have to roll back (downgrade the entire system!) to a pre-8.8 version of openssh or rather use an older copy of some live-distro.

Re: [SOLVED] new ssh client can't connect to old servers

ok.. that's might be the temporary solution...

I'm going to connect to all my old servers from the old one and update keys...

so anybody can close this "issue".

Mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.
