Hrm, are you sure that it doesn't work, or is there perhaps
just a *long* delay?  (wait for a while to be sure)

If it's just a delay, then sshd is trying to do a reverse
lookup on the ip address, which is failing, so it's timing
out before the connection proceeds.

If that's what it is, then we'll look into fixing that.
