As I regularly format my test box, I often get stuck SSHing into it, like this:
$ ssh u...@domain @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ @ 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 --:--:--:--:--:--:--:--:--:--:--:--:--:--:--:--:--:--:--:-- Please contact your system administrator. Add correct host key in /home/user/.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of this message. Offending key in /home/user/.ssh/known_hosts:44 RSA host key for domain has changed and you have requested strict checking. Host key verification failed. Now, I need strict checking but I'd like to just remove line 44 from ~/.ssh/known_hosts. Easy to do in VIM, probably even easier to do in sed or awk. But I've been reading sed and awk tutorials for two hours and I cannot figure out how to remove line N from the file without creating a second file. If I'm already going through the hassle of creating then moving a second file then I might as well just edit the file in VIM. Any ideas?
