friends

in /var/log/secure I have a bunch of:

Aug 30 11:21:19 billybob sshd[9930]: Accepted publickey for root from

Aug 30 11:41:17 billybob sshd[9982]: Accepted publickey for root from

What's up with the "Could not reverse map address" messages? Do I need
reverse mapping?

in /etc/ssh/sshd_config we have
#VerifyReverseMapping no

I could uncomment that line and turn reverse mapping off.

ideas?
