Answer 1

If you are trying to connect to running docker container on port 2222 with the command and you get the error

mian@tdowrick2~$ ssh pos@localhost -p 2222

Then to solve this problem, on your local computer (i.e. host machine not container) go to cd ~/.ssh/ and open known_hosts file with text editor. Remove the line starting with [localhost]:2222 and save the file. Now try to ssh again

mian@tdowrick2~$ ssh pos@localhost -p 2222

Error will disappear but you have to do it each time the container restart.
