2 days ago  I use something specific to the company for who I’m adding the key. You can see here the new SSH key is examplecomidrsa. Please be careful here, if you leave the default you may overwrite your existing key. You probably don’t want to do that. The Key is the Config. Head on over to where your SSH keys are stored, probably in /.ssh directory.

On some operating systems, when you first log in to the CLI, you may be prompted to add the key fingerprint of the Oracle VM Manager host to the ~/.ssh/known_hosts file, for example:

SSH key pair's are machine independent, which means you can create a SSH key pair on one machine and can deploy the same SSH key pair on multiple machines. It is valid thing to do, thats how you must do it. Moreover Git uses SSH for transport, so you can clone/download the Git on both the machines having the same SSH key pair. Dec 17, 2019 SSH tunneling or SSH port forwarding is a method of creating an encrypted SSH connection between a client and a server machine through which services ports can be relayed. SSH forwarding is useful for transporting network data of services that use an unencrypted protocol, such as VNC or FTP, accessing geo-restricted content or bypassing intermediate firewalls. The ssh-keygen program can be used for generating additional host keys or for replacing existing keys. Known Host Keys. SSH clients store host keys for hosts they have ever connected to. These stored host keys are called known host keys, and the collection is often called known hosts. SSH uses pre-generated public and private keys. Once generated these keys are stored for future use. The content of the keys should not be related to the hardware or O/S, but do depend on the random numbers they provide. There are various formats used to transport the keys. If you move from one platform to another you may need to change the key format.

If you want to avoid this message and have host keys automatically added to the known_hosts file, you can turn off strict checking of SSH host keys using the following command:

If you have upgraded or reinstalled Oracle VM Manager, you may be prompted that the host identification has changed when connecting to the CLI, for example:

To clear this message and allow connections to the CLI, use the ssh-keygen utility to remove the entry for the Oracle VM Manager host, for example:

You may need to add braces around the hostname if the previous command does not remove the entry, for example: /windows-10-key-generator-2018.html.

Alternatively, edit the ~/.ssh/known_hosts file and remove the entry for the Oracle VM Manager host.

Connect to the CLI again and you are prompted to add the new fingerprint if strict checking of SSH host keys is enabled.
