The older ssh-rsa algorithm *only* uses SHA-1. The SHA-2 versions are
rsa-sha2-256 and rsa-sha2-512. If connecting to a server succeeds when
the former is excluded, the server supports SHA-2. If it does not, it
only supports SHA-1.

This also has nothing to do with the MACs setting; HMAC-SHA1 is still
secure (as is HMAC-MD5).
