I think this describes the problem, but I haven't a clue how to
solve it.
sudo ssh -e none -l bra -p 22 192.168.1.2

Someone could be eavesdropping on you right now (man-in-the-middle
attack)!
It is also possible that the RSA host key has just been changed.
The fingerprint for the RSA key sent by the remote host is
08:98:f6:32:35:45:55:ce:ec:f3:c6:c6:73:db:8e:3d.
Please contact your system administrator.
Add correct host key in /root/.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of this
message.
Offending key in /root/.ssh/known_hosts:1
RSA host key for 192.168.1.2 has changed and you have requested
strict checking.
Host key verification failed.


It means you have reinstalled your local computer, and recreated the local
key. The remote server just says 'oh, oh you're lying to me. the first time
you came here that way , you said you'll give another fingerprint (the long
string) than the one you're giving to me now. You must not be you. Stop
lying, and I'll talk with you again, BYE.'

You have to find an alternative way to connect to this server, to open
/root/.ssh/known_hosts. And to remove the first line. You'll go again
through the fingerprint exchange process again.

Kind regards,
Gérard BIGOT.
