Is there a reference about rsa/dsa? Interesting... --james 17:30, 30 June 2008 (BST)

Mainly what I hear informally from people who know a lot more about crypto than I do. Also the recent Debian OpenSSL problems hit DSA keys particularly badly- all DSA keys that have ever even been used on a vulnerable Debian system are potentially compromised, so there's another reason to avoid them --Catherine 17:36, 30 June 2008 (BST)

Here's a discussion comparing the two: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-security/48093-openssh-user-host-authentication-rsa-versus-dsa-provides-stronger-security.html

Thanks! *Goes and changes keys* --james 10:09, 1 July 2008 (BST)
