Delete it:
$ rm ~/.ssh/known_hosts


That file will rebuild itself. Basically all that is saying is that something has changed since the last time you connected to the host you were attempting to connect to.

      I had the same exact behavior, but after I deleted the known_hosts file from /users/admin/.ssh/, it did NOT recreate itself. Did you have to do anything for the file to regenerate?
