           Summary: Unexpected "Couldn't read packet: Connection reset by
                    peer" message
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 7.2p2
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5

Hello
I didn't expect to get a message about "Couldn't read packet:
Connection reset by peer" - it seems the failure was just a missmatch
of available key type. Can this connection reset message be removed?


$ sftp -P 2222 ssh at 192.168.0.16
Unable to negotiate with 192.168.0.16 port 2222: no matching host key
type found. Their offer: ssh-dss
Couldn't read packet: Connection reset by peer

Note, "ssh" command does not have the same problem with this server, it
doesn't show the connection reset message.

Thank you, Jonny
