Dave, First of all, you probably don’t want to keep the key signatures in the known_hosts file: a machine at a given IP address will change and so will the signature.
On our management nodes, I add a rule to /root/.ssh/config to ignore the host signatures. For example: Host 10.10.11.* UnknownHostsFile /dev/null StrictHostKeyChecking no IdentityFile /etc/vcl/vcl.key The hostname issue is likely due to how your DNS and/or DHCP are set up, but that becomes moot if you don’t do strict hostkey checking.
