What do you mean by "RSA", an RSA key for ssh1 auth or an RSA key for ssh2 auth? Assuming your sshd_config contains Protocol 2,1 and your collegue has a ssh1 RSA key, he has to use '-1' on the CLI. Otherwise, if sshd_config contains Protocol 1,2 you have to use -2 on the CLI. Another approach is to change your and your collegues ~/.ssh/config on the client box to do the right thing when connecting to that server, anyway. Btw., RSA is assumed to be more secure than DSA. I suggest using an ssh2 RSA key, too.
