 Maybe some update on the Firebird server or - as Lester suggests - due to the

 there; I checked it against the one you sent me back in August 2010 and it's 
 identical. The associated email address is nor...@hubble.dunbar-it.co.uk, but 
 AFAIK that part is just informational (1). You don't provide an email address 
 when connecting; just as long as your system has the private key that 
 corresponds to the public key on the server, things should work out.
I do still have my private key to match the public one already submitted 
I made a serious point of making sure I preserved everything in /home!

This is what happens, with a lot of the messages removed for brevity:

Ok, from the above I can see one or two things:

* has the ip address changed on the server? The warning says that it is 
62.141.46.210 while the second attempt is telling me it's 78.47.172.252.

* why is it telling me that the fingerprint is 
88:5e:b0:80:96:c0:e2:89:f8:52:a4:d8:a1:bc:9b:5f in the warnings and when 
I connect it says it is 91:3e:7e:28:ff:be:a5:c1:1d:f2:e1:bf:7c:ff:10:e6 
instead?

The above repeats as long as I want to keep trying. The warnings say one 
things the connection says another - and the end result is the same, I 
don't get a connection.

If I ping the server I get 78.47.172.252 - so the warnings appear to be 
a pile of poo!

I'll keep investigating 


Cheers,
Norm.

Hello Norman,

may be you need to work with other (CMS) server, instead of dummy
web-nodes? ;-)

Please, contact me privately for more details.

ND As part of an annual (or thereabouts) laptop tidy up, I've had a clean

ND sent my public key (and has restored it after the rebuild) but I keep 
ND getting a man in the middle attack warning and a message telling me 
ND that the entry in ~/.ssh/known_hosts has changed.

ND I can SSH to www-data@78.47.172.253 but I cannot for the life of me,

ND Could someone please remind an old man what he's doing wrong! Thanks.

ND Cheers,

ND PS. I did check back through all my emails, no passwords mentioned on 
ND the SSH matter, just a request for my public key.

Morning Helen,

(or is it, where you are?)

 I don't think any of us has SFTP access to www.firebirdsql.org.
To be honest, I can't remember! I'm sure I did have ssh and sftp to 
wherever we upload our docs to - I have to supply Sergey with a public 
key a long time back.

  ...

 78.47.172.252 is the IP address corresponding to cms.firebirdsql.org, which 
 is where we ordinary mortals upload and edit stuff.

norman@hubble ~ $ nslookup cms.firebirdsql.org
Server: 127.0.0.1
Address:127.0.0.1#53

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:   cms.firebirdsql.org
Address: 78.47.172.253

252? or 253? I have an email from Sergey from 11th October 2011 telling 
me to login as www-data@78.47.172.253 and no password would be required.

It seems this is not the case as I get prompted for www-data's password. 
Anyway, I'm having another conversation with Sergey even as I type. 
Hopefully, all will be well soon.


Cheers,
Norm.
