[ale] ssh - no spoofing check

[jimpop at yahoo.com (Jim Popovitch)]

I believe the man-in-middle message is derived from accessing a server
that has a different server key cached in ~/.ssh/known_hosts.  You
should be able access the same box by multiple names/IPs without getting
that notice.  I suspect that you are reusing a host name from one box on
anther box and that your known_hosts file still has an entry from old
host.
