6.0 DragonBlaze SSH 'connection closed'.

[CroweS]

Hi folks,

I've deployed the current (6.0-DragonBlaze Build 193955549) image onto a Pi3. I'm unable to connect to it via ssh for some reason. When I ssh -v I get this.....

I'm keen to connect using Putty to work out why I can't get the Amiga emulator to work

Any help more gratefully received.

@crowes did ou have a previous installation of Recalbox ? Do you have an external storage ?

[CroweS]

@oyyodams - I did have the 2018.12.24 Christmas.Beta release on that Pi3 (and remains available on another SD card). There is indeed an external (32Gb USB) storage device that is connected to the Pi containing ROMs.

@crowes so you may have an old ssh configuration on your computer. SSH keys have changed on Recalbox side, so you have to clean up your SSH keys on your computer.

Thank you for the suggestion. I've tried all I can to remove existing keys. Do Putty, WinSCP and OpenSSH (Win 10) all keep the local key info in the same place (I'm doubtful)? I'm having the same problem despite my efforts (mostly with a fair bit of Google help).

Any further guidance would be most appreciated. I'm no expert on SSH, however I'm a quick learner.

Rgds, Steve.
