  • Putty: StrictHostKeyChecking

    From steve.a.hill@gmail.com@21:1/5 to All on Tue May 15 08:24:40 2018
    The problem is with the way you use registry to store keys. I can't make a cluster like I can in openssh. When I connect to a round-robin cluster I get a new host-key every time and I can't automate the connection. I need to either disable host key
    checking or be able to put in a cluster of host keys.

    You can manually configure a cluster of host keys. Look in the SSH >
    Host keys panel.
