I'm trying to connect to my computer via OpenSSH on Ubuntu (either remotely or from the same machine, different terminal), however none works. When I try to connect remotely with ssh username@ip_address the terminal keeps waiting but nothing happens. When I try to connect from the same machine with ssh -v localhost, I get the following output and error:

Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?
Host key verification failed.
How can I solve this issue? I tried to turn password authentication off, to get the least secure but usable setup, but still no luck.
I generated keys and now I get a different error with ssh -v localhost, as follows:

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,
first thing :
Have you generated own ssh keys ?

this says no public and secret key found..
Plus almost every distribution has now enabled StrictHostChecking = yes in /etc/ssh/ssh_config + allowed only ssh2 protocol ( btw. ssh1 allowing ssh1 is dangerous and totally unsecure)
And last have you allowed interactive login or only public key auth ?
