.. note:: If you get a scary looking warning that says something like "WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!" - fear not! This is most likely happening because you have recently reflashed or did an update from pre-v0.3.3, which would cause a change in the key for your device's hostname (e.g. `xxxxxxxx.local`) or IP address (e.g. `192.168.1.x`). The solution is to delete the existing entry from your `known_hosts` file, which is typically located at `~/.ssh/known_hosts`. This should be named in the warning, along with a helpful line number (in case your file is lengthy).
