sshd lets me know that there are two depreciated options:
- KeyRegenerationInterval
- UsePrivilegeSeparation

I search for a place where I can find information about deprecated
options and how to manage it.

I can't give you a general answer other than reading git history, but
regarding your specific options:

  * KeyRegenerationInterval was specific to SSH protocol 1, which you
    almost certainly weren't using and in any case is no longer supported
    in recent versions of OpenSSH.
  * sshd now always behaves as if "UsePrivilegeSeparation sandbox" had
    been set, and this is no longer configurable.

In both cases, you should just remove the options from sshd_config.5.

Hello,

Thank you for your fast answer.
May I infer that when an option is deprecated it can simply be deleted
and consider that it is a working rule of the dev team (and therefore
adopt this mode of operation for the future)?
