    There is a similar file to sshd_config called ssh_config (note the
    missing 'd' in the second one) in the same directory /etc/ssh/ There
    you can specify which protocol(s) your ssh client uses to connect.
    I'd say that would probably be a good test. Change the line
    # Protocol 2,1
    to
    Protocol 1
    and try to connect. You should not be able to connect. Then change it to
    Protocol 2
    and you should be able to connect. Note, you only use one client,
    ssh, you just tell it which protocol(s) it can use. The default is to
    use 2 first, then 1 if that fails. 2 is a better protocol and sshd
    should be forced to use only 2 as your auditor has told you. Is this
    the default for Fedora? I forget as we change it to only use 2 at
    work.
