Marc has previously connected to a given address and stored a key. That address now has another key - the correct (IMO) approach is to delete the old key for that address (remove the 1st entry in ~/.ssh/known_hosts. i.e. change the key stored for *that* computer. You've asked him to change *his* key which will have no effect on the problem (the machine he's connecting to still has a new key that differs from the one he has stored). > > Then try reconnecting. > > Celejar > > Kind regards -- Iceweasel/Firefox/Chrome/Chromium/Iceape/IE extensions for finding answers to questions about Debian:- https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/collections/Scott_Ferguson/debian/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
