[NCLUG] gethostbyaddr(x.x.200.6) failed: 1

[Joshua SS Miller]

Hello all, 

A quick question how do I stop gethostbyaddr lookups on sendmail?  I
have looked on the web, got out my sendmail book, and asked a few people
but no one seems to know.  I am unable to add them to dns and would
really rather not add them to /etc/hosts.  Is there any other way?

sendmail-8.11.6

Error is:

May 15 01:23:20 testmachine sendmail[27809]: gethostbyaddr(x.x.200.6)
failed: 1
May 15 01:23:21 testmachine sendmail[27828]: gethostbyaddr(x.x.203.25)
failed: 2

Thank you for any help,

Joshua SS Miller
