Bug ID: 2083
Summary: Add option to display VisualHostKey only when remote
is not in known_hosts
Classification: Unclassified
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 5.5p1
Hardware: ix86
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: P5
Component: ssh
Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
Reporter: bugmenot at mailinator.com
The config option VisualHostKey=yes will display the ASCII art of the
remote public key every time one connects to a remote host.
However, it may be interesting to do this only when the remote host is
*not* mentionned in known_hosts, just like fingerprints are displayed
only for unknown hosts.
A potential option would be:
VisualHostKey=unknown-hosts
