[lug] problems with ssh key authorization after

[Hugh Brown]

I seem to remember that ssh1 was fundamentally flawed and allowed for a
theoretical hack even though the hack would be really hard to implement.

Does anyone know how to generate an ssh2 style RSA key?

It should like you've got a client (ssh) configured to use ssh1 and a daemon (sshd) configured to use ssh2.  Configure them both to use the same protocol and generate the appropriate keys and you shouldn't have to specify -1 or -2 anymore.
