Re: [CentOS] ssh to failover target?

I have some machines that send ssh commands to a load balancer appliance that is really a pair of machines that can fail over to each other. The ssh keys are set up on both targets, but whenever the active target is changed, ssh issues a warning about a "man-in-the-middle" attack also goes to the log and the console which tends to alarm the operators. Setting the strict host check to no lets the command complete anyway, but is there a way to get rid of the warning completely?

If you're having the same keys on both machines: Does the load balancer rewrite the ip addresses of the boxes or does the client see a different ip address for the failover host?
