A version of ssh-keygen that old would have generated the keys using
legacy PEM encoding.  Recent versions use a different (stronger) format
which the older sshd would not understand.

You can cause a current ssh-keygen to generate PEM format keys using
the "-m PEM" option, which can also be used with -p flag to convert an
existing key to PEM.
