I have a cvspserver setup, which works fine for localhost

CVSROOT=:pserver:beths at localhost:/home/cvsroot

I can do a cvs login as beths on the box locally, but,

CVSROOT=:pserver:beths at 10.100.100.14:/home/cvsroot

on the box 10.100.100.148, gets the connection reset by 10.100.100.14 
and generates this error message in
/var/log/cvspserver

04/3/31 at 20:51:09: START: cvspserver pid=17386 from=10.100.100.148
04/3/31 at 20:51:09: FAIL: cvspserver address from=10.100.100.148

Reverse lookup failure?

Edited /etc/hosts

10.100.100.48 Vader

No effect.

Googling is not turning up alot of information on this one, I could just 
have users ssh into the box, but, that'd be naff.

Has anybody else encountered and fixed this before?
