I am unable to troubleshoot since I no longer have the old known_hosts file. But, accessing directly seems to do the same thing as Connect to Server, so I imagine the results would be the same. It seemed almost like gvfs wasn't expecting this scenario and eventually timed out because it didn't know what to do when asked the question about confirming the connecting to a previously known host that has a different rsa key than was expected.
If you know how to generate a new host key for an SSH server without reinstalling the OS, I will try to reproduce the problem with a virtual machine as the SSH server. -- Connect To Server reports Timeout reached when connecting to an SSH host with a different RSA key https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/215700 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
