Q. I upgraded from SSH1 to OpenSSH. It generated a new SSH-1 RSA host key, instead of noticing and preserving my existing host key. Also, it appears to be ignoring my sshd_config file!
A. SSH1 and OpenSSH have different default directories in which they look for configuration files: SSH1 uses /etc, whereas OpenSSH uses /usr/local/etc. You can either move your existing hostkey and other SSH configuration files to the new location, or build OpenSSH with configure --sysconfdir=/etc.
