I just tried to ssh into freebsd server using Putty (pocketputty actually). I got a connection (sort of) but my Putty device put up the question "...unknown certificate.....do you want to trust it..." or words to that effect. Due to finger problems on the touchscreen I said NO. OOPs - now putty gives me error messages about not being able to connect to server. I think that my FreeBsd box is locking me out (or maybe it is the Windows Mobile?? Can anyone tell me how to unlock this situation ? Presumably if it is FreeBSD locking me out then there is a black mark against my mobile's mac address??? Can I find and remedy? Alternatively, perhaps my mobile device is not accepting the security certificate from the server in which case I need the FBSD server to issue a different one? I feel a bit like the guy who left his key inside the car and locked himself out..! Any help please? Thanks, Graham/ -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
