You're probably not connecting to the same network.

You have to be on the same wirless network for SSH to work.

make sure you're on port 22, the IP is correct(I check via bosspref) and it's root, like you said

Try removing the known_hosts file in the .ssh folder. Terminal commands are as follows...

cd .ssh
rm known_hosts

I know that sometimes it has to generate a new key to work.

I'm having the same problem with Fugu, and the terminal fix isn't working. :( Any other suggestions?

Try to access the phone via terminal.

type: ssh root@your ip here

Now it says that my password doesn't match the password in Keychain, and when I go to the keychain there isn't a place to change it.. :confused:

edit: Okay, so I guess what I meant to say, is that I don't know what password to change in the Keychain. I'm new to this and confused...help?
p.s. sorry to the OP if I'm hijacking or anything!

Go back to Terminal and type:

cd .ssh (press enter)
rm known_hosts (press enter)

Then proceed to log back on the the phone as usual. This should fix the invalid host key.
