Please upgrade to Rebex Total Pack 2016 R3 or higher (or Rebex SFTP 2016 R3 or higher) to solve this issue.

Despite the misleading error message (the strange part about genereting a new key actually came from the server), this is most likely caused by an incompatibility in Diffie-Hellman group exchange.

Okay, Rebex 2016 R3 did work, so I could get connected to the server, but now the login failes. The Login Data is correct, if I try the same login information with FileZilla for example it works.
So I thought maybe another compability issue and I tried the 2018 R2.1, but it did not work.

Got also a log:

Code Sample:

    Dim ftp = New Rebex.Net.Sftp
    ftp.Timeout = 300000
    ftp.Settings.UseLargeBuffers = True
    ftp.Connect(serverName:=ftpServer, serverPort:=ftpPort)
    ftp.Login(userName:=ftpUserId, password:=ftpPassword)

As far as I know, FileZilla is unable to create any usable log to make it possible to determine what it does differently. Would it be possible to try this with WinSCP? If it works, please create a log and mail it to us for analysis.
