rbpi 4 libreelec unable to connect on synology sftp

I have synology DS1522+ with movie library at location A. I have been using sftp for sharing this library into raspberry pi 4 with LibreELEC into location B and everything was working great for years.

Last week, I did factory reset on my synology(because of bug...) and since then I am unable to connect rbpi 4(location B) to my library.

sFTP server is running, port are forwarded correctly. Permissions are OK. Internet connection on rbpi is OK.

If I try to connect on sFTP server from location B via my notebook using fillezilla, everything is runing great. If I try the same on librelec, location is unavailable.

Do you have any idea what I should try now? Let me know if you need some more information.

In the absence of debug logs I'd make an educated guess that the keys that underpin the S in SFTP changed on the Synology side and while FileZilla is configured or defaults to ignoring that Kodi will probably flag the mismatch and fail. I'd have thought that kind of thing would be relatively obvious from logs though (although I never used SFTP for anything). See if clearing /storage/.ssh/known_hosts (or the old entries for the IP/FQNDs of the Synology target) makes a difference?

I wasnt able to find .ssh folder so I just formated whole SD card and installed libreelec again.

Looks like it helped. It is working now. Thank you.
