[Info-vax] Problem with Filezilla connecting to OpenVMS

Hello,
I'm running OpenVMS 8.3 and TCPIP V5.7 ECO4.
Filezilla has apparently decided that the kexalgorithm diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 is vulnerable and won't connect to any of my servers.
I upgraded one machine to TCPIP V5.7 ECO 5 and replaced a whole heap of SSH executables on recommendation of HPE. After reboot I entered KexAlgorithms  diffie-hellman-group14-sha1 into the files SSH2_CONFIG. and SSHD2_CONFIG.
Now Filezilla can connect but outgoing or incoming SSH-session to/from other OpenVMS clients fail. OK, so I added KexAlgorithms  diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 to the files too. Now connection to/from other clients work but Filezilla has again stopped working.
Any ideas anyone? Is the order of the KexAlgorithms lines relevant? Problem unsolvable?
Regards
Hans Blom
