I'm curious. Has anyone ever encountered that scary warning you get when an SSH host key changes, and thought "oh man, I'm getting MITMed, I'd better not connect to this server!", instead of thinking "oh right, I guess they reconfigured the server, now what command do I type to make the warning go away"?
- tomjen3 11y agoI have. Usually it's because i reconfigured the server, but I am ultra paranoid. Most people don't care, but I would expect sysadmins to do so. And who else should login with ssh?
- schoen 11y agoI've never thought it was likely to be an attack, but I always thought it was my responsibility to check why it changed or at the very least confirm it looked the same via a separate network path.
