Yes, it is... I disallow passworld logins, and use rsa keys.

Tried that - and the outcome was the exact same kex_exchange issue... good idea, but no difference. :P

Not following you, which I really want to because -

I'm on Debian, yea... and can you imagine - right after sudo apt install rsh-redone-client, B00M DoorParty fires right up just like normal!!! Super thank yous for all of your suggestions...

I wanna grasp what made you think of this - yer saying that you noticed OpenSSH was handling rlogin? What made you think or find the rsh-redone package?

That was a fix - I never thought to myself that it was the actual rlogin binary that needed attention, and not my setup... I was thinking it had SOMETHING to do with my SSH keys or some keys that I didn't know about. 

Regardless, THANK YOU ZIP!!!! w00t w00t; all of 2o's 'things' are fixed and working perfectly [ha] on the new server!

 Zi> Hoping some of this helps. =)
 Zi> Best regards

Mucho mucho gracias - this one was driving me insane. It takes a village - glad you thought of the fix.
