Bug ID: 198043
Summary: Updated OpenSSH no longer uses FQDN in known_hosts
Product: Base System
Version: 10.1-RELEASE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Many People
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
Reporter: e...@vangyzen.net
The update to OpenSSH 6.5p1 (r261320) removed FreeBSD's customization to use
the canonical hostname (FQDN) in the known_hosts file. Was this intentional?
Could it be restored?
Conveniently, patch-ssh.c from security/openssh-portable applies cleanly to
releng/10.1 (and to head, I expect).
The new CanonicalizeHostname and related options can be used to get the old
behavior, but only by manually configuring the DNS search path in an ssh client
config file. It would be unfortunate if this were required in order to
preserve the long-standing behavior.
