I keep getting this error message in my log files.  This error message
happens all the time from computers that are allowed to login via
accounts that do exist.

Feb 15 13:06:08 sparky sshd[29802]: reverse mapping checking getaddrinfo
for test.atreus-systems.com failed - POSSIBLE BREAKIN ATTEMPT! 

Any idea what this means?

Dan
