No RSA keys generated for SSH

wlp94611

pfSense 2.70 with FreeBSD 14 does not generate RSA keys when SSH is enabled.

I ran ssh-keygen -A but had no luck.

Has anyone else encountered this problem, and if so how did you resolve the issue?

I installed a 2.7.0 VM fresh yesterday with a snapshot from Nov 1 and it worked fine when I enabled SSH:

: ls -l /etc/ssh/
total 72
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  538380 Nov  1 02:44 moduli
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel    1555 Nov  1 02:44 ssh_config
-rw-------  1 root  wheel     419 Nov  2 10:55 ssh_host_ed25519_key
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel     104 Nov  2 10:55 ssh_host_ed25519_key.pub
-rw-------  1 root  wheel    3389 Nov  2 10:55 ssh_host_rsa_key
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel     748 Nov  2 10:55 ssh_host_rsa_key.pub
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel     823 Nov  2 10:55 sshd_config

Are there any errors in the system log from sshd? What happens if you try to run /etc/sshd by hand?

I dug a bit deeper and found the problem was with ExtraPUTTY. I could not agree with pfSense about the hash algorithm.

Works fine with PUTTY.
