Host Keys have changed

0

Hello,

one of our instance has been rebooted by AWS tonight. After that we recognized that the host keys of this instance have been newly created. We have strict checking enabled, otherwise we wouldn't have even recognized that. Does anybody know under what circumstances AWS doing that? Thanks, Thomas

    Which operating system are you using? I guess it's not an AWS issue rather than an OS-specific topic. Maybe SSH-agent has been upgraded to a newer version which uses another signature algorithm?

If RHEL 7, seems some process may be the culprit: https://repost.aws/questions/QUWdv9TxkiTNujm-gFHZEQ1Q/aws-ec2-after-restoring-a-rhel-7-ec2-from-a-backup-the-ssh-host-keys-change
