Previous tightening of crypto defaults caused problems with us
connecting to older ssh servers.
I am particularly interested / worried about sshd from RHEL 5, 6 & 7
for virt-p2v and virt-v2v conversions. This broke before, requiring
us to advise users to set the global policy for the machine to LEGACY
(thus ironically weakening crypto for everything).
Also I have some ancient network equipment that cannot be upgraded but
needs older ssh protocols. I can't connect to it from Fedora unless I
set the crypto policy to LEGACY.
Anyway I'm wondering if the SHA-1 change will impact ssh further?
