Anyone else see this type of thing before? I did some research on the lists but all I ever saw was a problem with reading resolv.conf. That's not the case here, because it's definitely picking up the nameserver from that file.
The fact that sshd requires reverse IP resolution is well-known behaviour. It's probably the most common FAQ about sshd ("Why is my login taking 60 seconds to present the password prompt?").

That much I know. I was just wondering why the daemon is trying DNS lookup when the IP in question is listed in /etc/hosts. I thought listings in /etc/hosts would supercede the need for a DNS lookup. Of course, I could be wrong... it wouldn't be the first time. :-)
