    I had an earlier key of yours already. This one reported "unchanged".

    SHOULD there be a change?

    At the risk of sounding completely ignorant, what is this? Are these ssl
    keys? I would love to learn about this.. I have an esxi server and when I
    log onto it from remote machines it always warns me about it being unsecure?

    These are public keys for use with programs such as PGP and GPG.

    You can use GPG keys to log into a PC via SSH but the easiest method is to use a Yubico Key
