Edit the file and remove the offending line(s).

Unfortunately ssh keeps the file in a cryptic form.

However, the ssh program tells you which line offends.  Sometimes there
is more than one such line (there may be separate lines by host-name and
IP address or by different host-names if you have CNAMEs in DNS).

If line 17 is bad, then emacs will let you start like this:

 emacs +17 ~/.ssh/known_hosts

and ^K^K^X^S^X^C removes the line (^C = CTRL-C) and saves the file.  The
ssh program will then tell you the next line to remove, if necessary.

I don't use vi enough to be able to give a recipe.
