And I agree.
And thanks for reminding me to read the man - I'd simply confirmed that
the quoted command didn't work without realising it was just wrongly used.


Please read the post I was responding to again.... :-)
"ssh-keygen -R your_hostname_or_ip_address" *will not solve the OP's

Which would explain the OP's reponse to that.


ssh-keygen -R the_remote_ip_address *will work*
as will deleting the conflicting entry in known_hosts





Kind regards
