You should add this to a Host section, so it only enables the wek
encryption for that host.

That doesn't look like the error you get from an unsupported key, which
is something like

Unable to negotiate with x.x.x.x: no matching host key type found. Their offer: ssh-dss

Is nxserver trying to connect as root? It looks more like the disabling
of passworded root logins in OpenSSH.
