Thread: Warning: the RSA host key for '(remote host)' differs from the key for the IP address

hello,

getting error when sshing server. can connect fine via terminal after agreeing 'are sure want continue', when trying connect via nautilus hanging , timing out because doesn't show dialogue error me agree to. admittedly not knowledgeable key auth, how can fix this?

server debian 6, connecting ubuntu 11.10 amd64 laptop.

code:

warning: rsa host key  '(remote host)' differs key  ip address '(ip address)' offending key ip in /home/zaiger/.ssh/known_hosts:18 matching host key in /home/zaiger/.ssh/known_hosts:19 sure want continue connecting (yes/no)?

i opened known_hosts file had no idea there. great. in advance

ok fixed it. if happens find thread through search explain did.

first copied known_hosts , renamed backup.

code:

cp ~/.ssh/user/known_hosts ~/.ssh/user/known_host_backup

and deleted known_hosts file altogether , replaced brand new document same name. apparently server's ip dynamic , why confused.

anyways!
