Package: openssh-client Version: 1:4.6p1-5 Severity: normal It seems to me the advertised way of finding a key in a (possibly hashed) known_hosts file doesn't work:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ssh-keygen -F localhost [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ssh localhost ls #.newsrc-dribble# LICENSE Mail MyMusic MyPics News OldNews admin bin bitmaps chess copyright glchess-1.0.6 jadetex.cfg linux-source-2.6.22 mktex.cnf permres sgml spam-corpora src tarballs taxes tex wallpapers work www.tar.bz2 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ The connection succeeded - so localhost must be in known_hosts ... My real problem is that ssh-keygen -R doesn't seem to work either, so there is no way to replace a key when I get the famous "Someone could be eavesdropping" message, other than deleting the entire known_hosts file. Until this is clarified (of course user deficiency is a possible explanation :), I am disabling known_hosts hashing. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21-6unicorn200709091248 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages openssh-client depends on: ii adduser 3.105 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.14 Debian configuration management sy ii dpkg 1.14.6 package maintenance system for Deb ii libc6 2.6.1-1+b1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcomerr2 1.40.2-1 common error description library ii libedit2 2.9.cvs.20050518-4 BSD editline and history libraries ii libkrb53 1.6.dfsg.1-7 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libncurses5 5.6+20070908-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8e-9 SSL shared libraries ii passwd 1:4.0.18.1-11 change and administer password and ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-5 compression library - runtime openssh-client recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
