Errata ID: 1408
Status: Rejected

Section 12 says:

    SSH_MSG_KEXDH_INIT             30
    SSH_MSG_KEXDH_REPLY            3

It should say:

    SSH_MSG_KEXDH_INIT             30
    SSH_MSG_KEXDH_REPLY            31

Notes:

This is a transcription error in the erratum dated 2006-01-23. Section 12 says "numbers 30-49 are used for kex packets", so using 3 for SSH_MSG_KEXDH_REPLY is clearly wrong. OpenSSH and python-paramiko both use 31, not 3.
