As long as the file hasn't been tweaked, most distros will in fact updated it. Unfortunately there are other defaults in /etc/sshd_config that are really harmful, so some people do update them, but I think most don't, and the ones who do can be trusted to further update it if they start getting complaints about PTR lookup timeouts. _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
