"It seems like the machine RSA security key has been compromised or changed, which is normally the case with a new installation. On your local machine you need to remove this machine from the known_hosts file and then try and connect. This should ask you to generate a new SSH key.

You can use vi to edit the file directly.

vi /home/myname/.ssh/known_hosts"

Did you try do what message assumes? Try to remove old server record from /home/myname/.ssh/known_host at line 29.
