I need to be clearer.
The 12.3 machine is the client machine trying to rsync with an 11.1 machine running the relevant sshd.
I created new keys on the 12.3 machine (after fresh install) and put them in ~/.ssh/athorized_keys file on the 11.1 machine.
But the 11.1 machine can't understand the keys of the 12.3 machine, when the 12.3 machine tries to login ssh or rsync to the 11.1 machine.
Are your new keys of type ecdsa? (Check the start of your public key file, it names the type.) That type was not supported in 11.1, but in later versions. If that's the case, use option "-t rsa" when generating the keys with ssh-keygen. Keys produced that way work on 11.1 as well. This has nothing to do with ssh cyphers used for communication encryption, btw.
