+1 On this one, I have a similar problem. I'm trying to use this at work and our "security banner" is preventing vs code from setting up the connection in a proper way.
Is there any workaround? I have no way to disable the banner on my end.

I saw there is an option in ssh_config (for configuring the ssh client on the Windows machine in my example) named "LogLevel QUIET" which may solve this, I haven't tried yet, maybe you can give it a try if you're not able to modify server params.
I have also tried that with no successful results. I think that the extension should be able to handle these cases gracefully
Is there any update on the status of this issue?
We misinterpreted the banner as a password prompt. I think it will work if you type something into the password prompt, or, if you enable "useLocalServer" in your settings.json
This is not a fix. Why is the bug closed? The functionality is used for automatic login, that's why I'm using an ssh key, to avoid typing in the password. Was there a fix planned for this problem? Is there a commit with the fix?
Can you confirm whether that setting fixes it? It will be the default someday but it causes issues for some people on windows.
If that doesn't work for you, setting "remote.SSH.showLoginTerminal": true
may also work around it.
Without these, we can only detect password prompts with dumb text matching in the output from the ssh server, which is destined to fail in some cases.
The issue persists without "remote.ssh.showLoginTerminal": true
. But this persistence is only visible if you do a restart after re-enabling the banner in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
, otherwise it will work with the last session, so just to be safe when testing it's best to restart the whole virtual machine for every test.
It would be good to have this in some documentation, however for now the issue is rightfully closed as the above described case is solved by the combination of these two settings.
To sum up my settings.json file on windows contains the following remote ssh settings:
"remote.SSH.enableAgentForwarding": false,
"remote.SSH.enableDynamicForwarding": false,
"remote.SSH.remoteServerListenOnSocket": true,
"remote.SSH.lockfilesInTmp": true,
"remote.SSH.showLoginTerminal": true
I don't know why my setting file doesn't also contain "remote.SSH.useLocalServer": true since the setting is saved in the UI config file, but that's just nitpicking.
Unfortunately that useLocalServer setting is only really applied if set explicitly by the user in json, because the default is different per OS, and the UI can't show this.

Steps to Reproduce:
[On Host Win10 Machine] Download an install vmware player 15 + https://www.linuxvmimages.com/images/ubuntu-1604 vmware image
[On Host Win10 Machine] Setup key files in %UserProfile%/.ssh/ (I used id_rsa and id_rsa.pub as generated by ssh keygen)
[On Remote VM Ubuntu] Add public key generated at previous step (id_rsa.pub) to the client virtual machine running ubuntu 16.04
[On Remote VM Ubuntu] Check if /etc/ssh/sshd_config contains Banner value set (by default the vmware machine specified at step1 does have this banner message
[On Host Win10 Machine] Check that the connection to the ubuntu machine works with local command line ssh (for me it worked fine even with the OpenSSH installed with windows, but to be safe I checked with the ssh installed in Git Bash as well
[On Host Win10 Machine] Try to connect with Remote-ssh plugin you will get the following errors in the output panel (on the Remote-SSH tab): Remote-SSH.log
Note: Once I removed the
Banner
config parameter from /etc/sshd_config everything works fine.Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: No
