ssh keys after the IP change

avtandil_k · 04-08-2010, 10:09 AM

Hi,
I needed to change the openSUSE's 11.2 static IP and now I am having trouble ssh'ing to it. Is there something I have to do to regenerate or update the ssh keys?
Thanks!

Check your sshd.conf, you may of set it to only accept calls from a specific interface address such as this

Code:

#ListenAddress 192.168.1.XXX

And if that is so, it'll refuse to listen to any other IPs.

There is most likely other things but this is the first thing that sprung to mind as I setup my sshd again the other day. Good luck!.

Also what command are you using to ssh in, and what client (if any). Could it have saved the wrong address? Are you pointing to a hostname, or the actual IP address when dialing in?.

How does "I am having trouble ssh'ing to it" manifest itself?
What errors do you see?
