Re: ssh_get_user_home_dir (misc.c)

Hi,

This is used in two cases: as a fallback when the username to remotely
log on is unknown and to find the home directory of the local user, to
parse his configuration file, private keys and known_hosts file.
You can avoid this by setting the userdirectory parameter with
ssh_options_set.
