Hello, I use FreeBSD for natd and ipfw on a 200Mhz pentium system with 2 NIC's. My cable providers assigns the machine's outside IP using DHCP but it also gives me the wrong DNS addresses. I know that they are 195.130.132.17 en 195.130.132.18. But when I look at my resolve.conf it looks like this: search pandora.be nameserver 195.130.132.20 nameserver 195.130.132.18 With these settings my sshd cannot reverse my internal IP's and doesn't allow me to connect using SSH. Telnetd still works. When I manually change resolve.conf and change the 20 to 17, then SSH works just fine. Is this a problem that I should solve with my ISP or can i get a work-around ? Changing the permissions of the file didn't seem to work. Is there a way to disable the DNS resolving in dhclient ? I can't just disable dhclient, i'm on a dynamic IP (cycle = about 3-4 weeks).
