dsa public key file

[Roumen Petrov]

U-u-f-f :-)
I have in /etc/ssh_config
...
Protocol 2,1
...
and expected ssh-keygen -x to use ~/.ssh/id_dsa ( not ~/.ssh/identity ).
O.K. I tested 'ssh-keygen -d -x' but redirection to file is bad.
---
#ssh-keygen -d -x 1>xx
<ENTER>
---
and output begin with:
Enter file in which the key is (<HOME>/.ssh/id_dsa): ---- BEGIN ....

and
difference is:
SSH file:
-Subject: <USER>
-Comment: "1024-bit dsa, <USER>@<HOST>, <date in RFC-822 format>"
Generated form OpenSSH SSH file:
+Comment: "1024-bit DSA, converted from OpenSSH by <USER>@<HOST>"

but I not found problem to connect to SSH host with generated from 
OpenSSH pub.file.

P.P.
About ssh-add: I must add explicitly dsa public key file in this 
configuration.
