error: Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key error: Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key error: Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key
If this is the case, this can be fixed easily by running the following commands:
ssh-keygen -b 1024 -t rsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key ssh-keygen -b 1024 -t rsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key ssh-keygen -b 1024 -t dsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key
If this problem still persists then do the following.
service sshd stop
rm -rf /etc/ssh
yum erase openssh-server
yum install openssh-server
service sshd start
chkconfig sshd start
