ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
I have executed the same procedure as Jason and am facing the same problem
as Jason and Kevin (along with many other people). The now infamous
"ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host"
Is there an incompatibility with Vista 64? Any ideas what the fix might be?
I don't have Vista right now so I can't try it. Be that as it may, I'd
recommend reading and following the problem reporting guidelines found
here:
<http://cygwin.com/problems.html>
Some bootstrap info may allow others on the list to spot a problem. I also
highly recommend allowing the configuration script to create a new local
account for you. In addition, start first with a test to see if
you can connect with password authentication. Public key is more
complicated so it's best to make sure things are basically working before
getting into the nitty-gritty issues of public key authentication.
