running OpenSSH_4.5p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8d 28 Sep 2006 on Gentoo I'm having
problems with connecting to a Linksys SRW2008:

ssh_rsa_verify: RSA modulus too small: 512 < minimum 768 bits
key_verify failed for server_host_key

The switch does not support a higher key size.
Hot do I force ssh to connect even if the key size is to small?

It's not tunable, you would need to change SSH_RSA_MINIMUM_MODULUS_SIZE
in ssh.h and recompile.

Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
