I’d like to remove the following RSA key fingerprint from my DirectAdmin vps because I no longer have an ecommerce website that required it.

This is a message I got from my vps:

Code:
The authenticity of host ’128.31.301.40 (128.31.301.40)’ can’t be established.
RSA key fingerprint is 4d:05:3e:5b:ea:90:7a:be:6e:55:bc:ba:12:02:06:69.

I read http://www.screenage.de/blog/2008/0...rints-from-known_hosts-with-sed-or-ssh-keygen

Could someone tell me if I use the second set of code [listed at the url above] to remove the RSA key fingerprint?

Thanks a lot
 
Just remove it from ~/.ssh/known_hosts or empty the file. As soon as you try to connect a host again, the file will be created with correct data.
