Can switching wifi network cause a ssh server to implicitly change its public and private key pair?












0















I run a vino server on a computer, and run vinagre (with ssh tunneling option) in another computer to connect the vino server.



Then I move both computers from a wifi network to another wifi network.



I run vinagre (with ssh tunneling option) to connect again, why



Host key verification failed...


?



Is it correct that that message comes from SSH, and means that the server's public key stored on the client host is outdated, because the ssh server has changed its public and private key pair?



Can switching wifi network cause a ssh server to implicitly re-create its public and private key pair?



Thanks.

  • Is it possible that a different server is running per network interface? Also, since you're tunnelling you need to first resolve which host's key is not valid anymore. Thirdly, and most likely, the IP address has changed, and the verification is tied to the IP.

  • Only one server instance is running on the remote computer. I am the only one who can start it.

  • Do the two networks assign different IP addresses to the server? Then it may be an effect of the CheckHostIP setting - see for example SSH into a box with a frequently changed IP
