Hi

Since the IP address of my Win2K box changed I've been getting the
following line in /var/log/messages every time I SSH into my FreeBSD
machine.

Oct 19 09:25:54 drex sshd[93464]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 10: host name/address mismatch: 195.26.40.18 != garak.staff.izr.com

195.26.40.18 and garak.staff.izr.com both resolve to each other in both
directions:

[mark@drex mark]$ host 195.26.40.18
18.40.26.195.IN-ADDR.ARPA domain name pointer garak.staff.izr.com

[mark@drex mark]$ host garak.staff.izr.com
garak.staff.izr.com has address 195.26.40.18

[mark@drex mark]$ cat /etc/hosts.allow
#
# hosts.allow access control file for "tcp wrapped" applications.
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/hosts.allow,v 1.8.2.3 2000/07/20 15:17:44 ume Exp $
#
# NOTE: The hosts.deny file is deprecated.
#       Place both 'allow' and 'deny' rules in the hosts.allow file.
#       See hosts_options(5) for the format of this file.
#       hosts_access(5) no longer fully applies.

ALL : localhost 127.0.0.1 : allow

sshd : all : allow

ALL : ALL : deny


Any ideas?
