One of our NAS boxes has a delegated DNS entry, using simple round robin node balancing. "Great" thought I, "I can use the DNS name for SSH work" Alas it causes host key alarm because there's multiple hosts...I don't like to switch that off so I guess I'll just stick to the IP I've had stuck in my head forever.

When we have an SFTP/SCP target server behind a load balancer, we run a separate SSHd on a new port, load balance that, and distribute the same host key to all the high-port SSHd.

Might not make sense in your circumstances, or maybe that's what you were looking for.

@dashdsrdash That's really useful advice. I've got to see what can be done at the NAS end (it all handles it itself).
