but when i connect using the ssh client i get this security alert. do you know what this means ?
"PuTTY security alert The server's host key is not cached in the registry. You have no guarantee that the server is the computer you think it is. The server's key fingerprint is " 2048 1e:45:22:44:..........:55:9a:7b If you trust this host hiy Yes and add the keys to the PuTTy's cache on connecting." how to recognise the fingerprint numbers that they belong to the host to which we are connecting. i don't think they refer to the MAC address because that is unique to the host. --- colin newman wrote: > Putty is a great SSH windows client.
