Hi Anne...<br>
<br>
Glad you have it sorted...<br>
<br>
Do you have it to auto connect?<br>
i.e. when you are transferring files, it automatically transfers
without asking for a password.<br>
<br>
If not, and you would like instructions, let me know.<br>
It saves a lot of time.<br>
<br>
I always use rsync when transferring files across my servers.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
John C<br>

Quote from previous mail:
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ @
WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED! @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ IT IS
POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY! Someone could be
eavesdropping on you right now (man-in-the-middle attack)! It is also
possible that the RSA host key has just been changed. The fingerprint
for the RSA key sent by the remote host is
df:df:a2:17:c3:f3:f4:8c:c5:e2:e3:83:ae:51:78:b3. Please contact your
system administrator. Add correct host key in
/home/anne/.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of this message. *_Offending
key in /home/anne/.ssh/known_hosts:3_* RSA host key for 192.168.0.40
has changed and you have requested strict checking. Host key
verification failed.
It clearly states here that line 3 is the problem.
I'm wandering if you are editing the right file. I have had this
message many times when changing a server. The file that you need to
edit is on your netbook i.e. your 'sending' computer.
Just delete line 3. It should have the receiving ip number at the
begining of the line followed by the auth. key All you need to do is
delete that line and save the file. Do not replace the line with
anything else. Just save the file.
Then you ssh to your new server. You will then be asked for
confirmation. Type 'yes' That will then add the necessary line to
your **/home/anne/.ssh/known_hosts** file.
Hope this makes it clearer than my previous post.

<pre wrap="">John, you're a star. It wasn't that I was editing the wrong file, but
you got me onto the right path.
Because my memory is unreliable I always refer back to a how-to when
doing anything like this. All how-tos say something like "then copy
your public key to the known-hosts file" - can't remember the wording.
Anyway, I literally did that. After reading this message, I renamed the
known-hosts file, and created a clean, empty file. I then did as you
said - made the ssh connection, gave my local password, then the
keychain password, and got a connection. Fired with enthusiasm :-) I
decided to do the same again for external access, so I gave my external
ip, the port forwarded number, and got a connection again. Finally, I
did the same giving a second open port to be forwarded and got a
connection to this laptop. I now have any and every connection I might
need while away from home.
Why do I always try to do it the hard way? :-D
Thanks again
Anne
