Trouble shooting steps for typical connection issues:
- Server side - run sshd in debug mode
* `net stop sshd`
* In an elevated admin console - `sshd.exe -d`
* This will dump debug logs real time on console
- Client side - start ssh.exe in verbose mode
* `ssh.exe -v ...`
* This will dump verbose logs on console
Trouble shooting more complex issues:
- Server side
* stop sshd and ssh-agent services
* delete sshd.log and ssh-agent.log (can be found in the sshd.exe directory)
* set LogLevel to DEBUG (or DEBUG2/DEBUG3 for higher levels of logging) in sshd_config
* run the scenario. sshd.log and ssh-agent.log will contain sshd and ssh-agent related traces respectively
- Client side
* set LogLevel to DEBUG (or DEBUG2/DEBUG3 for higher levels of logging) in ssh_config
* Run ssh.exe in verbose mode as detailed above
