Re: failing ssh login attempts



Hi!

The change was possibly introduced in the latest release, with the
change from OpenSSH 6.7 to OpenSSH 7.4. OpenSSH 6.8 set the option
UseDNS to default "no":

> *  sshd(8): UseDNS now defaults to 'no'. Configurations that match
>    against the client host name (via sshd_config or authorized_keys)
>    may need to re-enable it or convert to matching against addresses.
