to trigger a monkeysphere update of the known_hosts file for the hosts

+that are being connected to. It is meant to be run as an ssh
+ProxyCommand. This can either be done by specifying the proxy command
+on the command line:
+
+.B ssh -o ProxyCommand="monkeysphere-ssh-proxycommand %h %p" ...
+
+or by adding the following line to your ~/.ssh/config script:
+
+.B ProxyCommand monkeysphere-ssh-proxycommand %h %p
+
+The script is very simple, and can easily be incorporated into other
+ProxyCommand scripts. All it does is first runs
+
+.B monkeysphere update-known-hosts HOST
+
+and then
+
+.B exec nc HOST PORT
+
+Run the following command for more info:
