Nice tool, but it is also possible, to use DNSSEC to validate SSH
fingerprints, which is much more comfortable and more secure.

SSH is about security; host key matters a lot here; and you can know for
sure by using this tool. It means you know precisely how to answer this
question:
The authenticity of host 'blah.blah.blah (10.10.10.10)' can't be
established.
RSA key fingerprint is
a4:d9:a4:d9:a4:d9a4:d9:a4:d9a4:d9a4:d9a4:d9a4:d9a4:d9.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?

We hackers don't want to get hacked. :-) SSH rocks - when host key is
right. Enjoy!
