Is maximum length defined for a public key? If yes, what is the limit.
from ssh-keygen(        1)
     -b bits
Specifies the number of bits in the key to create. For RSA keys, the minimum size is 768 bits and the default is 2048 bits. Gen- erally, 2048 bits is considered sufficient. DSA keys must be ex-
             actly 1024 bits as specified by FIPS 186-2.

Thanks in advance,
HTH, you're welcome
