ssh setup problems.



Hi, I followed the instructions in the ssh2 install and setup 
QUICKSTART guide and the README. But each time I try to connect
to the ssh server this is what I get :

$ ssh2 -l foobar server.foo
Disconnected; authentication error (No further authentication methods
available.).

And on the server.foo machine this is what I have :

Aug  3 04:54:50 server sshd2[12126]: DNS lookup failed for
"132.147.164.129".
Aug  3 04:54:53 server sshd2[12126]: Connection from 132.147.164.129
denied. Authentication as user foobar was attempted.
Aug  3 04:54:53 server sshd2[12126]: User authentication failed: 'No
further authentication methods available.'

I am guessing that it needs some kind of reverse lookup to work ?  If
so how can I disable it. There does not seem to be any entry in the
config
file.

Thanks
