SSH protocol version

Currently my application is working with J2SSH and now clients wants to migrate the existing server to IBM. This new server will support only SSH protocol version 2.

I have a query whether J2SSH will support SSH protocol version 2 ?. Is there a way to find SSH protocol version in my application, currently my application is coded in Java environment with J2SSH for SSH/SFTP channels.

The original open source version of J2SSH only supports the SSH2 protocol. If you attempt to connect to an SSH1 server it will simply fail with a connection exception.

For security reasons you should probably consider migrating your code to the open source version of J2SSH Maverick. This is a similar API from the same author (that's me btw); the difference being that the new API is maintained and current whereas J2SSH has not been maintained for some time as its last release was in 2007.
