openssh unix dev - Jan 2001 - sshd: DES in SSH1 ?

I see that commercial SSH version it is possible to
run sshd in SSH1 using DES (i.e, accepting SSH-DES clients).
I understand from Damien Miller that
Cisco routers also run in only SSH1 DES mode.

Is it possible in openSSH to configure sshd (compile-time/runtime)
to run sshd in SSH1 or SSH2 mode and accept SSH1 or SSH2 DES clients ?
[I would like to be able to run sshd in SSH1/DES mode ]


Is there a patch or another version that I can use (to be able to
run openSSH sshd to accept SSH-DES clients in SSH1 ?  If not any pointers/
suggestions to code changes that I should be make to achieve above ?

Thank you.

change the definition of cipher_mask_ssh1(), but it's not
recommended.
