Dunno. But with passing time, crypto becomes more and more of a problem. Why deal with that problem at all? My solution was to not care about ssh, but just use telnet or even rlogin. In my local LAN (not: WiFi) I'm reasonably sure that there is no wiretapper. At least telnet is still available for install in newest Linux distros.

Maybe worth a thought?
