Key exchange failed

[Oliver Tseng]

I got this error the first time I ran it.  Then after trying again later in
the day, it worked.  Strange cause nothing changed.  

I did compile the sources myself, but I did not modify any code.  Oh well,
at least it works now.

Sounds strange? The name of the kex algorithm seems right and should be
available (since it's the only standard algorithm :-). Have you compiled 
the sources yourself? If so you must not obfuscate the KEX algorithms 
(also they must of course be included in the jar).
