Hi Jamis,
Thanks for the reply.
Knowing where the equivalent in windows of ~.ssh/known_hosts is the
core of the problem.
When that snippet of code does
e.remember_host!
where the hell is it remembering it to? Thats the question that I have
not been able to figure out the answer to.
Putty stores all that stuff in registry .. but putty is working.
Winscp holds it in an ini file I think.
Where is Net::SSH storing it on WIndows thats the problem.
The ssh_options[:paranoid] = false option did not work for me ..
perhaps because I have password authentication disabled on the linux
deploy to box and the paranoid option seems to make it just give up on
keys so I get prompted for a password and then it fails.
I can now deploy again after running that code but it makes me very
nervous of doing anything with the keys!
Cheers
George
