You are using the make-ssh-known-hosts script to generate a server-wide
list of known hosts?  What exactly are you doing?  The following
procedure works for me on my dinky little home network:

   make-ssh-know-hosts domainname > known_hosts_file
   cp known_hosts_file /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts

The script is somewhat verbose, so it should tell you what's going
wrong.  You do need to specify the list of domains to search.

The BFI method is to generate the file manually, but that doesn't scale
well.
