[Bug 1659] New: VisualHostKey and host key fingerprint aren't displayed when host's IP address is changed

https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1659

Summary: VisualHostKey and host key fingerprint aren't
displayed when host's IP address is changed
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 5.2p1
Platform: ix86
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: ssh
AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs [at] mindrot
ReportedBy: tom [at] holizz


My home server's IP address changes frequently, and the first time I
ssh into it after it changes, neither the host key fingerprint nor the
VisualHostKey are displayed, meaning there's no way for me to verify
that I'm sshing into my home machine, and not another machine that's in
my known_hosts.

% ssh holizz.ath.cx
Warning: Permanently added the RSA host key for IP address
'92.3.96.217' to the list of known hosts.

% ssh holizz.ath.cx
Host key fingerprint is 13:1c:07:4f:85:e9:73:4e:9f:07:98:cf:8d:56:ec:19
