Remote host Identification error

Hi .,

When i try to scp from my server I am getting the following error message can anybody guide me , what i need to do to resolve the issue

The Error is:

bash-2.05# scp -r tomcat 10.210.7.212:/usr/local

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

@WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!@

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Someone could be eavesdropping on you right now(man-in-the-middle attack)

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

The fingerprint for the RSA key sent by the remote host is

md5 83:38:a2:8e:15:a1:c5:95:c4:98:6a:47:8b:66:d8:f8.

Please contact your system administrator.

Add correct host key in //.ssh/known_hosts

Offending key is entry 4 in //.ssh/known_hosts

RSA host key for 10.210.7.212 has changed and you have requested strict checking

.

lost connection

Thanks

It says it quite clear, if you read the message:

[...]

> RSA host key for 10.210.7.212 has changed and you

> have requested strict checking

Here, it says that the ssh key on the machine differs from the last time when you accessed it. This is perfectly normal if you have reinstalled the machine you are trying to access, othervise its time to be a bit suspicous.

It also clearly states how to get rid of this message:

> Offending key is entry 4 in //.ssh/known_hosts

.. just edit /.ssh/known_hosts and delete line four.

.7/M.
