you said "does no resolve or something"

somewhere I seem to remember that ftpd
does a reverse lookup of the address
of the incoming connection to try to
resolve it to a hostname. If that fails
then login is denied. I know that this
feature is controllable in wu-ftpd by
the line "deny !nameserved /blah/file"

Andy
