When I try to connect to my iphone via my mac OS X's terminal I get this error:

It is also possible that the RSA host key has just been changed.

What do I do?

You should delete the file /Users/altimitos151/.ssh/known_hosts, or just delete the first line of the file. Then it should work

I don't know about /.ssh/known_hosts, but I deleted the file .ssh but got the same error.

Did I do anything wrong?

Thanks.

You are on Mac, so in the terminal execute the following:
rm /Users/altimitos151/.ssh/known_hosts

Then it should work
