    SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_3.4p1 Debian 1:3.4p1-1

    I'm seeing this error:

    moseley@mardy:~$ fgrep 'reverse' /var/log/auth.log | head -1
    May 11 16:53:42 mardy sshd[4870]: Could not reverse map address 192.168.1.2.

    I'm using "views" in Bind9 so that my internal (NAT'ed) LAN can lookup
    internal machines:

    moseley@mardy:~$ dig -x 192.168.1.2 @localhost | grep bumby
    2.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa. 604800 IN PTR bumby.

    Why is sshd unable to lookup the reverse.
