This error has frequently shown itself in the past, but for the last several days, I've been encountering it with nearly every attempt at connecting since I've upgraded hardware and the version of FreeFileSync:
LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_RECV: Failed getting banner [libssh2_session_handshake]
Authentication is by ssh keypair
I'm running a series of *.ffs_batch files in bash script as a cron job. The target system is a Rocky Linux 9.2 box running OpenSSH_8.7p1 / OpenSSL 3.0.7 (1 Nov 2022)
I was running the free version v13.0 and upgraded today to the Donation version 13.0.
Is it a timeout issue? Can that be increased?
TIA

Did you mean to say, "infrequently"?This error has frequently shown itself in the past
As a test, if you revert back to 12.x version, does that now also give you the error "with nearly every attempt"?

No, frequently, as in a few times per day. Now, it's nearly constant.Did you mean to say, "infrequently"?therube, 19 Sep 2023, 16:23
