com.maverick.ssh.SshException: The host key was
not accepted [Unknown cause]
Resolving The Problem
This error occurs because the "known host key" checked into GIS is a DSS key and the SFTP server is expecting an RSA key.
Ask the SFTP server owner
to provide a host key in RSA format.
Delete the SSH Known Host Key (DSS
format) previously checked into GIS.
Check-in the new key in RSA
format.
