Host key issue fixed, now vncproxy dead :( ... but self-repairing?

Relatively new to proxmox here. I have two hosts pve1 and pve2
Something went strange (not sure what) and suddenly pve2 got an error attempting to use the Console of pve1

Searching I learned to do
Code:
ssh-keygen -f "/etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts" -R <target>
on all boxes. The next ssh login asked to store the host key and all was well...

...except then I couldn't can't attach to the console of any VM in pve1: "failed to run vncproxy" :(

Amazingly, after the distraction of a phone call, now it all apparently works Just Fine.

I'm pleased...and nervous. The ssh_known_hosts file still has no keys for pve1.

Any ideas on how to correctly install new keys?
