I agree, this feature usecase sounds a bit weird. In my case I am using OpenSSH compiled with Cygwin for Win32 and I need to specify in etc/ssh_config something like this: UserKnownHostsFile /cygdrive/c/Users/%u/.ssh/known_hosts Currently I can only specify the location of IdentityFile. -- With best regards, Dmitry _______________________________________________ openssh-unix-dev mailing list openssh-unix-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/openssh-unix-dev
