But what about:
VerifyReverseMapping
Specifies whether sshd should try to verify the remote host name
and check that the resolved host name for the remote IP address
maps back to the very same IP address. The default is ``no''.
?
I usually configure my sshd with -u0 to prevent hostnames being truncated
in wtmp/lastlog, for better audit trail.
