This option can take multiple files. Sort of like so:
UserKnownHostsFile ~/.ssh/known_hosts /etc/ssh/system_hosts
The source for sshconnect.c in version 7.3p1 says that if things get
added, they get added to the first file in the list of hosts files. I
tried this: I removed all the entries for server1 from my
~/.ssh/known_hosts and added them to /etc/ssh/system_hosts (owned by
root and 644), then verified I could still ssh to server1 as my normal
user. I removed all the entries from /etc/ssh/system_hosts , then tried
to ssh to server1. ssh asked me if I wanted to add the host key, and
added it to my ~/.ssh/known_hosts and things were fine.
If I misunderstood this or there's something else that needs to happen
here, please say something. Hope This Helps,
