Package: logcheck-database
Version: 1.2.62
Severity: normal
File: /etc/logcheck/violations.ignore.d/logcheck-ssh

Last year, openssh was modified[*] to include the IP address when
issueing its "reverse mapping checking getaddrinfo" message.  From what
I can tell, this was probably only brought into Debian with 4.6p1 this
June, so I'm leaving that part optional to ease the etch backports:

  ^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ sshd\[[0-9]+\]: reverse mapping checking getaddrinfo for [._[:alnum:]-]+ (\[[:.[:xdigit:]]+\] )?failed - POSSIBLE BREAK-?IN ATTEMPT!$
