I've been getting errors like this:

sshd[73005]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 11: can't verify hostname: 
getaddrinfo(100.117.178.220.broad.static.hf.ah.cndata.com, AF_INET) failed
kernel: pid 73005 (sshd), uid 0: exited on signal 11

this error popped up on every connection attempt until I temporarily commented 
out line 11, which is:

ALL : /etc/hosts.deniedssh : deny

None of this gets logged to the denyhosts log; in fact, there is nothing in the 
last 30 days except for stuff like:

Feb 18 00:00:00 mail newsyslog[50653]: logfile turned over
Feb 19 00:00:00 mail newsyslog[14874]: logfile turned over
Feb 17 00:00:00 mail newsyslog[15580]: logfile turned over
Feb 18 00:00:00 mail newsyslog[50653]: logfile turned over

Since this occurred i did updated OpenSSH to 5.2p1 (since I thought it was the 
problem until I looked at the logs more closely) to the latest in the BSD ports 
and also OpenSSL to 1.0.0_2

But the error still occurs if I uncomment the line in /etc/hosts.allow

Any suggestions?
