Description

I wanted to update my old benthos version to the latest redpanda-connect but it seems there is an issue when connecting via SSH.
My input config:

input:
  label: <redacted>
  sftp:
    address: <redacted>
    credentials:
      username: <redacted>
      password: <redacted>
      host_public_key: <redacted>
    paths: [/*/*.xml]
    codec: all-bytes
    watcher:
      enabled: true
      minimum_age: 1m
      poll_interval: 10m
      cache: ftpcache_nats

For the host_public_key I used the result of ssh-keyscan -p 22 <redacted>.
But my processing log shows:

time="2026-04-27T10:29:06Z" level=error msg="Failed to connect to sftp: connecting to SFTP server: ssh: handshake failed: ssh: no common algorithm for host key; we offered: [ssh-rsa], peer offered: [rsa-sha2-512 rsa-sha2-256]" @service=benthos label=cedris_ftp path=root.input

Additional information

I can connect to the SFTP server via WinSCP just fine.
