I’ve reinstalled my server and I am getting these messages:
[user@hostname ~]$ ssh root@pong
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@ WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED! @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY!
Someone could be eavesdropping on you right now (man-in-the-middle attack)!
It is also possible that a host key has just been changed.
The fingerprint for the RSA key sent by the remote host is
6e:45:f9:a8:af:38:3d:a1:a5:c7:76:1d:02:f8:77:00.
Please contact your system administrator.
Add correct host key in /home/hostname /.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of this message.
Offending RSA key in /var/lib/sss/pubconf/known_hosts:4
RSA host key for pong has changed and you have requested strict checking.
Host key verification failed.
I have tried various solutions that I found on the Internet. My known_hosts
file (normally in ~/.ssh/known_hosts
) is in /var/lib/sss/pubconf/known_hosts
. I’ve tried to edit it, but it remains in one state. I have installed ipa-client and have Fedora 19. How do I resolve this warning?
All the answers answered so far work only if you do not have Freeipa installed.
The right answer for freeipa in comments below from adrin is here.
