/etc/crypto-policies/back-ends/opensshserver.config is the default file of
the system.

/etc/sysconfig/sshd-permitrootlogin does not exists (and we do not try to
logon as root anyway.

/etc/sysconfig/sshd : In this file the CRYPTO_POLICY= line is uncommented to
allow for more cyphers. (I try to connect from a machine with not the newest
cyphers (yes I know the risk))

It used to work on a F30 system, which crashed and is now fresh installed
with F31. Can it be that I have to add more cyphers to the
/etc/ssh/sshd_conf files? (the public key from the client machine starts
with : ssh-rsa)
