Re: verify RSA 2048

The mechanism to encrypt the information will be negotiated as stated by
http://www.openssh.org/txt/draft-ietf-secsh-architecture-12.txt-------snip3.3 
Policy Issues
  The protocol allows _full_negotiation_of_encryption_, integrity, key   
exchange, compression, and public key algorithms and formats.   Encryption, 
integrity, public key, and compression algorithms can be   different for each 
direction.-------snip
Options may be:Ciphers:  AES-*, twofish, blowfish, 3des, rc4MACs:  MD5, SHA1
Use "ssh -vvv" if you want to see what you actually use for each connection.
