I was wondering if anyone knew how to remove a host key and add a new one to .ssh/known_hosts
I just recently reinstalled FC3 on one of my systems. I previously had an ssh connection established, but after I reinstalled I imagine it was wiped away. So my question is...How do I re-establish my ssh connection to that host?
Is it as simple as going into .ssh/ and doing: rm known_hosts
Don't remove the whole file, only the line where the key is for that particular system. After your reinstall the system generated a new key, but in the known_hosts file on the system where you initiate the ssh connection there is still the old key. They don't match, so you don't connect :)
