You will see the MD5 fingerprint of RSA host key as soon as you connect, though WinSCP will by default opt to use better host key algorithms, like Ed25519. To see a fingerprints for different algorithms or for other host key algorithms, use ''[[https://man.openbsd.org/ssh-keygen|ssh-keygen]]'' command: \\ <code>sudo ssh-keygen -l -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key |
