Professor now am facing another problem as seen below when i try to ssh with
X forwarding

sveerapp at mechagodzilla:~$ ssh -X linux-lab.cs.stevens-tech.edu
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@       WARNING: POSSIBLE DNS SPOOFING DETECTED!          @

The RSA host key for linux-lab.cs.stevens-tech.edu has changed,
and the key for the according IP address 155.246.89.34
is unknown. This could either mean that
DNS SPOOFING is happening or the IP address for the host
and its host key have changed at the same time.

IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY!
Someone could be eavesdropping on you right now (man-in-the-middle attack)!
It is also possible that the RSA host key has just been changed.

Add correct host key in /home/sveerapp/.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of this

RSA host key for linux-lab.cs.stevens-tech.edu has changed and you have
requested strict checking.

I tried on separate hosts but with no luck. Using -Y option also gives the
same message as above. No am not able to run xterm either, while i try to
run I get the following error

sveerapp at neo:~$ xterm
xterm Xt error: Can't open display:
xterm:  DISPLAY is not set

Kindly Help.

Thank you,
Shashwath
