I made the proposed changes this morning and everything seems to be working fine. Thanks to Asheesh for dropping the DNS TTL to a very low number this weekend to speed up DNS convergence. Everyone will probably (hopefully!) get warnings from SSH that the key of the remote host has changed, which it has. The fingerprints for the new server are: RSA key: f3:a1:9e:6e:8d:fc:33:5c:b7:0c:ee:8a:f9:88:c2:ab DSA key: 1e:c3:45:7c:d6:60:c4:24:4c:a7:a6:47:03:1b:51:91 Any problems or question then definitely let me know right away.
