SSH to Pix

[Guest_imported]

I am trying to set up an SSH telnet session to the outside interface of a Pix 515 using the 56 bit DES and a puTTY SSH client on Windows 2000.
I just want a straight forward connection without AAA or certificates etc. I assume I have to generate a pre-shared key on the Pix to be used by the client but how much of the other isakmp stuff do I need to add (e.g.hash algoriths, transform sets etc etc.)The Pix doco is pretty confusing on this.(to me anyway)
If anyone has a partial config I would be grateful.
TIA
Regards
Rob

HI.

At the pix you have to issue (once):

ca generate rsa key 1024
ca save all

And verify with "show version" that DES is enabled.

At the client, you need to set it to SSHv1 instead of the default SSHv2.

No need at all for the isakmp and other IPSec options.
IPSec is NOT used here - SSH is an upper layer protocol similar to SSL.

I believe you have to set the username field to pix also.
