(Get the code!)
Ummm. If you're referring to the "original" patch that I submitted, It's out-of-date. It was written before I had a complete(?) handle on what was going wrong. Included with this comment is an attachment with the newer patch against the openssh-5.8p1 source.
A bit of explanation. Some of the mods are for clarity. When your working, as we are, with a large number of hosts, "socket" doesn't tell you very much as to where the problem is occuring. Same with "Bad hostkey alg".
In the patch, I've attempted to allow `ssh-keyscan' to continue if the encountered problem is external in origin. Some of the items that you noticed are (I think) addressed by this patch.
NOTE - NOTE - NOTE - this patch has NOT been completely verified. The closed by remote because of LoginGraceTime" outs needs a bad remote server so that that can be done. Unfortunately, all of our servers are playing nice-nice at present. I did have an earlier buggy variant of the patch that "tried" to execute the patch code but I screwed up and generated an infinite loop instead. The basic code is running as the `ssh-keyscan' of choice in our setup.
