Host key changes on ada/linux.cs:
The host key for ada.cs.pdx.edu (which is where linux.cs.pdx.edu is also pointing) has been changed. (It now matches the key for babbage.cs.pdx.edu.) This means that users who were caught up in the DDOS problems from Spring term and are returning for the Fall may be getting key mismatch errors when they attempt to SSH to ada/linux. If that happens to you, know that this change is intentional. Please follow the instructions your SSH program gives you. (That is, remove ada’s old SSH key and then log into it again.)
If you have problems, please contact the CAT for assistance.
