            Bug ID: 2504
           Summary: key_load_private_type: unknown or unsupported key type
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 7.1p1
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: RESOLVED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5
         Component: ssh
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
          Reporter: imorgan at nas.nasa.gov
                CC: djm at mindrot.org
                CC: djm at mindrot.org
            Status: RESOLVED
        Resolution: DUPLICATE

When using hostbased authentication as root, and protocol v1 support
has
not been compiled in, ssh(1) complains about an invalid key type:

# ssh testacct at somehost pwd
key_load_private_type: unknown or unsupported key type
/u/testacct

This is due to ssh(1) attempting to load the RSA1 key (assuming that
one
exists) into sensitive_data.keys. This issue only occurs for root.
