If the line only reads node36 ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAA[...] then SSH will not settle since it wants to lock name, IP and key together. Thus, the user's known_hosts file gets an entry with the IP, or as weasel put it: < weasel> it knows the host by name. now it adds the ip address to its knowledge too. Making the lines read node36,192.168.0.136 ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAA[...] instead solves this problem. -- Please do not send copies of list mail to me; I read the list! .''`. martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> : :' : proud Debian developer, admin, user, and author `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system Invalid/expired PGP subkeys?
