Hello,

Local: 192.168.250.100
Remote: 192.168.252.0

What do I have to remove locally to preserve getting this message?

Hey! I had to reinsall the remote hosts. Of course, I am not surprise of a
such message.

[root@idfftp02 root]# scp root@192.168.252.100:/script/* /tmp

IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY!
Someone could be eavesdropping on you right now (man-in-the-middle attack)!
It is also possible that the RSA host key has just been changed.
The fingerprint for the RSA key sent by the remote host is
89:47:99:f4:54:be:24:99:83:58:1d:42:9a:50:90:8a.
Please contact your system administrator.
Add correct host key in /root/.ssh/known_hosts2 to get rid of this message.
