does anyone know how to disable FreeBSD from resolving incoming ip
addresses, or how to lower the time out so that it will not take a min and a
half to give up?  simply put I have a SMTP server on one side of a 3 part
hardware firewall using an internet ip address.  then I have the internal
section of the firewall (192.168.0.X) that is connecting to the SMTP server.
the SMTP server is not able to resolve the addresses into names and is
taking 1 1/2 min. to time out.  I have an external dns that the SMTP server
can use but I would rather not make unnecessary generic zone entries into
the dns box.  what can I do?
