Doesn't matter. It's the machine you're connecting to attempting to do a
reverse lookup of the machine you're connecting from.

>From man sshd_config:

     UseDNS  Specifies whether sshd should lookup the remote host name and
             check that the resolved host name for the remote IP address
             maps back to the very same IP address. The default is "yes".
