     DSAAuthentication
             Specifies whether to try DSA authentication.  The argument to
             this keyword must be ``yes'' or ``no''.  DSA authentication will
             only be attempted if a DSA identity file exists.  Note that this
             option applies to protocol version 2 only.

The default used to be to try protocol version 1 first; this has now
changed to version 2 in the OpenSSH 2.9 client.  It's always been
configurable in your client configuration files.
