Summary: .host is known, .00host isn't ... or is it?
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 3.8.1p1
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: ssh
AssignedTo: bitbucket at mindrot.org
ReportedBy: andrew.brennan at pobox.com
I've checked the reported bugs and there are similar notes, but nothing
that matched this specifically. Host key verification seems to match
in known_hosts against what was entered, but the error message when
there is no match might be misunderstood when the destination was
entered as an IP address, using a non-standard (but legal) format.
~/.ssh/known_hosts might have a listing:
10.8.1.1 ssh-rsa AAAAB3Nza...
... but if you were to ssh to 10.8.001.001 you will see a notice like:
The authenticity of host '10.8.001.001 (10.8.1.1)' can't be
established.
... assuming that you don't also have 10.8.001.001 in your known_hosts.
Making this match both the entered address and the () value might be a
solution, but it could well break something else.
