Description of problem:
It was very slow when first log in to a linux box with ssh.

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
It was very slow when first log in to a linux box with ssh.

# tcpdump -evvn -i eth1 '(not port ssh)'

told me the machine tried to look up PTR recode like this:


19:08:06.111363 > 0:0:0:0:0:0 **:**:**:**:**:** ip 85: 192.168.1.11.32768 >
210.188.241.66.domain: 12855+ PTR? 20.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa. (43) (DF)
(ttl 64, id 50829)
19:08:06.131363 < **:**:**:**:**:** 0:0:0:0:0:1 ip 147:
210.188.241.66.domain > 192.168.1.11.32768: 12855 NXDomain q:
20.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa. 0/1/0 (105) (ttl 52, id 57226)

I tried to disable reverse mapping check explicitly with the following command:

# perl -i.bak -pe 's@^#ReverseMappingCheck yes$@ReverseMappingCheck no@'
/etc/ssh/sshd_config

but it found out meaningless. The same packet was sent...


Expected Results:  No reverse mapping check.
