Due to a security issue, OIT had to regenerate our host keys for GitHub Enterprise. If you are getting an error when trying to use SSH to connect to GitHub, you will need to remove the relevant line from your known_hosts file.
Linux, OSX, Solaris, git-bash on Windows, etc...
Using ssh-keygen
- When logged in as the user, open a terminal
- enter the following command(s):
ssh-keygen -R github.uci.edu ssh-keygen -R github.oit.uci.edu
- Attempt the git operation again.
Using a text editor
- Open the ~/.ssh/known_hosts file in a text editor for the user
- remove the line(s) containing the following strings:
- github.oit.uci.edu
github.oit.uci.edu,128.200.217.194 ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAABAQCzsL9CZehmkOoEt8eTYL5yYUQ4fo/Zwkd9/0wNre585ai0ZzR9O9jXP8ZbgmQf9TZbVDy11g7bh6F9vFXF+yVUD80q/12/K7g6EfHUQ4Wv4JStSd8FuLTaQ/RFyX3KnLt5QNX8k47Xy60bbuuLsqjWMBJMFKCRZX3cOliuOToKeer6oaDBUnYG3QSm4Yu0up2YW72cNcg3tXtt5JuPPT1f30+y7E5bdkpDikffbCWA0Dg1voDlIO4ksmlc7Nul3KmPAiK8pyn2+ydah8nllcy7jsA8/CJVokful3BgwUKACr4zzpII3gMtI8GApmx5wIgGZnKNC3ZHfmhwbTDfR6GH
