When I connect through SSH to my server via SSH, I am seeing something like this:
asd:/Users/asd () $ ssh [email protected]
Password for root@iZj6cdolljnt77ccercqzsZ:
<hangs for a while>
packet_write_wait: Connection to 47.52.32.36 port 22: Broken pipe
I thought this could be an issue with my SSH client so I downloaded vSSH client and was able to connect!
I've tried connecting via the ssh client on Terminal.app and iTerm.app but both times they seem to hang before reporting that there is a broken pipe.
How can I go about debugging why my SSH client is not connecting but vSSH is?
EDIT
This is my version: OpenSSH_7.3p1, LibreSSL 2.4.1
And this is the -v info:
vng:/Users/vng () $ ssh [email protected]
