I'm sure that I'm overlooking something obvious (probably even obscenely so in hindsight), but I don't seem to be able to find anyway of disabling reverse DNS lookups in the stock FreeBSD 3.3 ftpd so people w/o hostnames connecting to my box don't have to wait for the lookup to timeout before going about their business. I know I could put the offending IPs in /etc/hosts as a kludge, but I'd rather not since most of those experiencing the timeouts are in dynamic IP pools. As for ftpd itself, I'm invoking it with -l -l out of inetd -l -w -W, while all my /etc/hosts.allow contains is 'ALL : ALL : allow'. Any pointers much appreciated and many thanks in advance. --k.
