Unable to scp
while doing scp I am getting the below error.
[root@verne .ssh]# scp test_30_April 10.20.52.111:/root @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ @ WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED! @ @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY!

The host key for that ip has changed since the last time you tried to connect to it. It could be harmless, it might not, all depends on the specific situation. If you determine it's harmless, you can either turn off strict host key checking in your scp command, or open up your known_hosts file and delete the key on line 1.

Deleting the line helped me. Thanks :)

While your immediate issue is resolved I find the idea that
you're a) copying stuff about to a machine with a public facing IP as root disconcerting, and b) the fact that you're happy to delete w/o a mention of a double check off the machine in question (machines key's don't just change like that) even more so. Cheers, Tink |
