Actually this is a simple DNS double lookup (normal / Reverse). This can prevent DNS Spoofing (most of the time it can also prevent legal use), but it is not working on the IP-Spoofing level. Using tcpd to protect based on source ip is risky, using it to protect based on domain names is foolish. Greetings Bernd
