Hi Aidan, I'm not sure I understand SSH keys to the point of answering that, but I can tell what I think it happened: the original SSH key, I believe, never changed. The external IP was the same for both servers, and because of this conflict, people from outside could see only the old server which took precedence. Of course, the old server had a different key. Please correct me if I'm wrong. As Gaël said, maybe this command > ssh-keygen -lf /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key.pub can show me if that is the case. But I would have to have the original SSH key to compare to, to see if it changed or not. Can I run the same command on a client (my notebook) to compare to the result of it from the server? I did not changed my know_hosts on the notebook.
