Reverse DNS Lookup

FTP servers (in this case IIS) can be set to only accept connections from hosts that have a valid reverse DNS.
I'm trying to find out if IIS does this by default. I know there is a way to add this functionality via the metabase, but I'm unsure if this feature is enabled by default when you install IIS 5.0
I imagine it's not, since you have to mess with the metabase in order to enable it, but I was just wondering if anyone could confirm this for me quickly. If someone annoys you, walk a mile in their shoes. That way you'll be a mile away from them, and you'll have their shoes
