Nothing much to complain = about, but I hope to resolve this oddity. If I were to open a SSH connection to the box from an IP that cannot be = reverse dns queried, the box takes a little while before giving the = username prompt. Is there a way to turn off reverse dns query? This = happens to the smtp service (running on inetd) as well. Thanks in advance.
