One of the servers I frequently log into via SSH has changed it's IP address. So, now I'm getting man in the middle attack warnings when I try to use SSH via Windows Powershell and OpenSSH for Windows.
On a linux machine, I would just remove the offending line from ~/.ssh/known_hosts
. But, the ~/.ssh
directory seems to be empty.
Where is the known_hosts file for Powershell/OpenSSH? I've checked in C:\Program Files\OpenSSH\home\anschauung\.ssh
, but that folder is empty as well.
Answer
On windows it is usually stored in the %USERPROFILE%\ssh
or %USERPROFILE%\.ssh
folders. If you type %USERPROFILE%
into the Windows explorer address bar it will be expanded automatically. You can also try cd /d "%USERPROFILE%\ssh"
or cd /d "%USERPROFILE%\.ssh"
from a command prompt.
