An attempt to scp directories to a laptop from the workstation failed because ssh saw a changed public key in known_hosts. How this happened I've no idea, but it needs fixing, perhaps by copying the correct ecdsa public key from the workstation to the laptop.
On stackexchange I read that ecdsa is for key exchange and ed25519 for data transfers, so I assume that I need to copy both public keys from the workstation to the laptop. Is this correct? Reading man ssh-keyscan suggests that running this (specifying the workstation host name) will do the job. However, While this adds several lines to the laptop's ~/.ssh/known_hosts it does not allow me to scp from the workstation. Advice on finding the reason ssh became FUBAR and fixing the problem is needed.
