@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ @@@@@@@@@
@ 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
5c:4d:dd:fd:xxx:93:f0:33:9xxb2:8f:c8xxx.
Please contact your system administrator.
Add correct host key in /Users/Matthew/.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of this message.
Offending key in /Users/Matthew/.ssh/known_hosts:1
RSA host key for xxxxxx has changed and you have requested strict checking.
Host key verification failed.


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.
