How do i fix this issue?

Anyone have an answer to this?? I have this too! Please help...

You need to enable hidden files with a tool such as Onyx. Then delete the .SSH folder from your home directory. It will then work.

thank you it worked!

Or simply open Terminal and type:
rm -rf ~/.ssh

i used to get this but now get 'connection refused'. I have deleted the known_hosts file.

any ideas ?

are you sure openSSH is installed on your phone? is it turned on via BossPrefs? maybe reinstall it again if you are sure everything is ok on your pc side.
