I am trying to use the in-built ssh server/client on windows10:
ssh opens just fine when i run ssh localhost or ssh user@local_IP_address (i am using key based authentication)
Now i've port forwarded port 22 in my router and am trying to access ssh via an external IP -
ssh user@remote_IP_address
i get
kex protocol error: type 30 seq 1
when i run
ssh user@remote_IP_address -vv
i get
OpenSSH_for_Windows_7.6p1, LibreSSL 2.6.4

I've tried using putty to connect and i get a similar error even when i re-arrange the kex algorithms so Diffie-Hellman group 1 is last
the error message says
Received unexpected packet when expecting ECDH reply,type 30(SSH2_MSG_KEX_ECDH_INIT)
C:\Windows\System32\OpenSSH. Start the service. --- Or maybe safer would be uninstall the OpenSSH feature and install the server manually. – Martin Prikryl May 28 at 6:19
