Solaris 11: ssh connection to a Solaris 11 host fails with error Couldn’t agree a client-to-server cipher (available: aes128-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes256-ctr,arcfour128,arcfour256,arcfour)

Solution: add 3des-cbc to the list of accepted ciphers to sshd configuration file.

Steps:

1. Append the following line to /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Ciphers aes128-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes256-ctr,arcfour128,arcfour256,\

arcfour,3des-cbc

2. Restart ssh daemon

#svcadm -v restart ssh
