Re: Have I been hacked?



You can check the fingerprint. Use
ssh-keygen -l -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key  (or similar) to print the
fingerprint of your RSA key to the screen. 
If it is '51:bd:cd:2e:6a:b7:35:b9:54:33:a8:e2:9a:57:95:0d' then your
friend has cached an old key you have used in the past (fx. before a
re-installation).

Hope this helps
