Both of these are normal.

The "Network is unreachable" is to address ::1 which is IPv6 shorthand
for the
loopback adapter.  Ignore it, use ssh -4 to force IPv4, set up your IPv6 
loopback ("ifconfig lo0 inet6 ::1/128"), or recompile after
configuring with
--with-ipv4-default. 

The second one is a warning that the host presented a host key that wasn't
known
by the client.  This will only happen once per user.  To avoid this, add the 
host's key to the client's global /usr/local/etc/ssh_known_hosts file.

It would be nice if ssh_config had an option for selecting IP4/6 to match the -4
and -6 command-line options (or is there one and I missed it?)
