Ed,

   This would wipe out the existing portable in known_host.

   I think the problem is more basic. While the laptop has ed25519 and ecdsa
private/public keys in /etc/ssh/, it does not have the private and public
id_ed25519 in ~/.ssh/.

   I believe that I need to run ssh-keygen on the laptop (with the same
passphrase as used on the server and other laptop), then run ssh-copy-id to
copy the public key on the server.

   Stand by for results ...

Thanks,

Rich
