Alternatively, you could force ssh protocol version 1 by specifying the
"-1" flag (eg, "ssh -1 localhost") or adding "Protocol 1,2" to your
.ssh/config

Upgrading to version 2 keys is the right solution, but if for some reason
you can't, you can always force version 1 and your existing keys will work
as you expect.
