at page 72 in rfc2246 :The following cipher specifications are carryovers from SSL Version
   2.0. These are assumed to use RSA for key exchange and
   authentication.
my question was about this note.
Mr Tveit, pleas explain more for me about "signature be omitted entirely" in anonymous key exchange, or give me its reference. thank you for your attention.

RFC 2246 specifies many DH key exchange cipher suites. Have a
look at page 61.

Do you mean "Analysis of the SSL 3.0 protocol" by Wagner and
Schneier?

If this is the paper you are talking about, you may have an old
version. The version revised April 15, 1997, states that this was
a typo in the standard, and that the designers intended that the
signature be omitted entirely.
