I think this is a bad interaction between the default sshd timeouts
and the DNS timeouts. If your reverse DNS is non-responding (as
opposed to just non-existant) then sshd's login timeout can expire
before the DNS lookup finishes making logins impossible. One way
around is to up the login timeout for sshd.
