[eclipse.org-committers] SSH Key issues

["Webmaster(Matt Ward)" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Folks,

   Recently some committers have been reporting host fingerprint 
warnings when using ssh to connect to git.eclipse.org.  We've been 
digging and it appears that about a year ago each of the servers that 
back git.eclipse.org generated a new ECDSA key(likely as a result of 
patching ssh), which has resulted in these warnings(when you are 
switched between servers).  We've worked to unify these to a single key 
for all the systems, which should result in this error going away.

I also noticed that our RSA key is pretty crusty so I've generated a new 
one with a longer length. This means that you should expect to get a ssh 
key warning tomorrow when this key is deployed. You can use the 
following fingerprint

35:30:65:bf:4d:cc:1a:65:07:ec:a1:39:44:19:ef:87

to verify that it's still 'git.eclipse.org' your client is talking to.

We've also taken this opportunity to make some tweaks to the sshd config 
to remove some weaker ciphers and generally clean up a little.

If you have any problems please let me know.

-Matt.
