I want to recreate those /etc/ssh keyfiles.
is there a way to run the original script again?
any clues as to where that script would be located?
The script just runs ssh-keygen. There is a DSA and an RSA host key.
You can modify the keys by running:
sudo ssh-keygen -t dsa
and
sudo ssh-keygen -t rsa
Specify the target file as /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key
and /etc/ssh-ssh_host_rsa_key respectively. Do not encrypt the private
key with a passphrase -- just hit <Enter> at the passphrase prompt.
Please note that when you try and connect, you will get a warning that
the host key changed, if you have the host key cached in
the .ssh/known_hosts file. You will have to delete the key in that file
to authenticate.
