Description

Hello!

I am able to connect using SshClient, but I am unable to execute commands. Does anyone know why this might be? The target framework I am using is net6.0. I have tried using different encoding methods, as well as default encoding, but that doesn't seem to make a difference. Does anyone know why this might be and how it can be fixed?

This is the exception that is raised:
Renci.SshNet.Common.SshConnectionException: An established connection was aborted by the server.
at Renci.SshNet.SshCommand.WaitOnHandle(WaitHandle waitHandle)
at Renci.SshNet.SshCommand.EndExecute(IAsyncResult asyncResult)
at line 26

Research direction

Start with the SshClient connection and SshCommand execution around the caller's line 26, using the net6.0 target and the reported SshConnectionException as the reproduction context. Determine what causes the server to abort execution and what additional server, command, or setup details are needed before a concrete fix can be defined.
