Long time user
I recently automated some of my rsync-time-backup backups with cron and now I get hourly emails warning me that the host key has been added to the list of known hosts
This is due to the
-o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/nullSSH flag being usedI've added a flag
--secure-sshwhich is disabled by default (so the current default behavior is maintained) but when enabled removes the SSH flag (thus enabling the SSH security features)I no longer get emails from Cron 👍
This closes #181 and #104
Thanks!
