    Hi,

    I have a server running sshd with Protocol 2,1 and
    I client with Protocol 2 for that particular server in my
    ~/.ssh/config
    ###
    Host server
    ...
    Protocol 2
    ###

    It appears, that 'client% ssh server ...' uses
    always Protocol 1 , thus ignoring the config file, whereas 'client% ssh
    -2 server ...' works as expected.

    With this I cannot connect without password unless doing
    alias ssh="ssh -2" or something.

    Running sshd on the server side with pure Protocol 2, also works fine,
    but is not desired.

    Here is the output of 'ssh -v -v -v server'

    whats this ? Sureley id_dsa is no rsa key. I've done
    'ssh-keygen -t dsa' .

    Why does 'ssh -2' put new keys in 'known_hosts' instead of 'knownhosts2'
    ?

    Thanks for your help
