How to disable the message “reverse mapping checking getaddrinfo for xxx failed - POSSIBLE BREAK-IN...












3















I have a "OpenSSH_7.2" client connecting to a "OpenSSH_7.3-hpn14v5 FreeBSD-openssh-portable-7.3.p1,1" server hosted on a dynamic IP. The remote server is a NAS4free server.



I tried to apply the suggestions I found online and I added via WebGUI to the NAS4free sshd_config the following lines:



UseDNS no
GSSAPIAuthentication no


The client also has in sshd_config the same lines.



The message is still there. I have no access to the inverse DNS record, so I cannot change it.



I perform "quiet" remote rsync backups and the output is being sent by mail, since it only contains errors and warnings. I get an email every time for errors that are of no use in my case.



How should I solve the problem?

          The client appears to be calling the DNS check, therefore




          UseDNS no



          GSSAPIAuthentication no




          on the server are useless.



          The DNS check in the client has been introduced (apparently) with a GSSAPI patch introduced for compatibility with SunSSH [the file https://github.com/omniti-labs/omnios-build/blob/master/build/openssh/patches/0015-GSS-API-key-exchange-support.patch#L1652 is no more available online



          Adding




          GSSAPIKeyExchange no




          to ssh_config (not sshd_config) solved the issue.
