Hi Mark. It's very easy to avoid your problem.

Have a look at the warning message:
" Offending key in /home/user/.ssh/known_hosts:5 "

If you edit the file "/home/user/.ssh/known_hosts" and delete the 5th line,
then your problem will be solved. You don't need to be root to do that...

Salut,
Sebas.
