this is an DNS problem. its trying to lookup the address of the host that is
connecting to it. you can turn these off in /etc/ssh/sshd_config or ensure that
you're comning from somewhere that has a valid DNS assocaited and update
/etc/resolv.conf with a valid nameserver for lookups.
if you're using a local connection, you can also use /etc/hosts
