Re:SSH Brute Force – The 10 Year Old Attack That Still Persists by andrewcooke on Monday July 15, 2013 @04:27PM (#6048356)
interesting, thanks. turns out there are even patches for ssh! http://srp.stanford.edu/links.html

but i get the impression that still doesn't mean that ssh can be made to work with system passwords without transmitting them (over an encrypted channel). i don't understand why - maybe srp requires a particular kind of hash?

ah yes - this answer http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/23821/srp-can-th... gives some details.
