Subject: DNS/host file looksups with ssh and tcp wrappers
I am running ssh on Solaris 7 inconjuction with tcp wrappers. We cannot use ssh to
login to a server running sshd2 unless the host connecting to the server is either a
resolvable through DNS or there is an entry in the /etc/hosts file, regardless of the
fact the hosts are specifically mentioned in the hosts.allow file. Is this a security
feature that can be turned off? We do not want ssh to attempt DNS resolutions.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
