You mean that your ssh server refuses all connections exept those coming from a certain computer?

Yup that is the odd thing ssh refuses connections from all computers then from one specific one. When i log in to the machine the messages that i get are not out of the ordinary.

Well, the configuration file is /etc/ssh/sshd_config. I don't know what is the problem, but I gess that if you take a look at the configuration file you should find something related to your problem.

.ssh is a hidden folder not a hidden file
do you ssh as root? as user?
if you ssh as user it's in /home/user/.ssh/known_hosts

Oops my mistake i meant to say that it was a hidden folder .. Yeah i am tunelling to the machine as root at the time being since i do not have any user accounts set up as of yet.
I do not have the hidden folder in /root/.


Would it be ok if i copied the files from a working machine to this one since it does not exist yet? I am planing on keeping the same config as the other one..

I like to play wizard too sometimes, but certainly doing it with ssh & related security programs is really a bad idea...

check http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_SSH_without_a_password
also have a look at /var/log/sshd/current

if you do not have any config it should ask you something like this when you ssh somewhere
Code:
# ssh root@localhost
The authenticity of host 'localhost (127.0.0.1)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is xx:xx:xx:xx:xx...
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added 'localhost' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.
Password:
