I'm using Freebsd 8. The remote server I try to login often gives me messages about conflicting host keys:
It seems that the sever are composed of a group of machines. I get connected to one of them each time I login. Since ssh uses a verification procedure involving each system's unique “host keyâ€, the host keys are different each time I try to login. The solution I found is to Manually delete the entry in /.ssh/known_hosts related to this hostname. Is there an automatic way to do this? or is it possible to tell Freebsd not to write the hotkey into known_hosts for this hostname in advance?
Code:
WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!
