Re: [opensuse] does the installer collect sshd keys from previous install

Hi,

I installed opensuse 10.3 on a box which had another old suse distro on it. I did a new install (not upgrade), custom partitioned the drive etc.

To my surprise the sshd keypairs are the same as from the old install (I checked against a backup). So does the installer collect them while inspecting the drives and then installs them?

Nice feature if so, something very wrong if not.

I used the i386 KDE CD of OpenSuse 10.3.

Thanks,

Did you protect the contents of /home? If so that's why. The keys are stored in ~/.ssh . -- Use OpenOffice.org <http://www.openoffice.org> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
