Hi,

I'm pentesting a ssh server version 2 and found with the timing bug a list of valid users. Do you know a brute force 
tool/script, which can check a ssh server, who only support ssh version 2?

I got the ssh brute force tool from James Shanahan (published at pentest mailinglisting on 01/25/2002), which is 
written in expert, but it only support ssh version 1.

In version 2 my ssh client asking thrice for a correct password. This is unaccounted for in James Shanahan's script.

Thanx for help and best regards.

Pierre
