Hi,
I would like to know the order used by OpenSSH to choose the key exchange
algorithm.
I've used Ethereal to sniff a complete connection between my FreeBSD
workstation and my OpenBSD laptop. I found that ssh used Diffie-Hellman.
Why ?
How can I use RSA or DSA keys created during the first boot by /etc/rc ?
Please note that I'm not asking how to use keys to access a box, but how to
choose a different algorithm to manage the key exchange process and protect
my password on the wire...
Thanks.
Ed
