The key you are looking for should be /config/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key

    Hi Cory, I know where to find the key but how do I copy paste the content of the file in txt box as there is no way for me tell whether entire is has been uploaded there or not. Thanks

    You can print to screen the private key using cat. cat /config/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key

    I'm pretty sure the system uses the ssh_host_dsa_key for system connections. We have an external monitor that connects via SSH to pool members and runs a script, and it uses the ssh_host_dsa_key private key for authentication to the pool members. You would then load the corresponding public key (ssh_host_dsa_key.pub) on your target machine.
