Do you work around that problem by setting UseDNS no? We have that
pretty much standard on all our servers at work because if you ssh and
both client and server have ipv6 the connection takes forever for it to
give up trying to find a PTR for your client's ipv6 address. And don't
try to use GENERATE in BIND to make PTRs for all your ipv6 addresses...
you'll run out of memory trying to start the daemon :-)
