    I'm trying to SSH into my pfSense box and it's asking me to confirm the ed25519 key fingerprint. Since I'm doing this across my local network and the ip address is correct, I'm as close to certain as possible that the key it's showing is correct. But, how do I actually find that key in pfSense?

      I not sure if that is available via gui?

      But its a simple ssh-keygen command

      ssh-keygen -lf ssh_host_ed25519_key.pub
      

      Should work - the file would be in /etc/ssh

      login-to-view

      You can run it from the gui like this
