The guest needs to be able to reverse lookup the connecting machine
(in this case, the host) details based on the originating IP address
of the connection.

Make sure your DNS is set up correctly and your guest configuration is
set up for DNS properly.

well, it will be the problem, unless the hosts
reverse (which sshd is doing) is also available
inside the guest, otherwise it will wait until
the dns/resolver times out ...

That shouldn't be the problem, as the guest's name is 
written in "/etc/hosts".

Check that the DNS server mention in /etc/resolv.conf in the guest is 
repsonding
