Hi,

This seems different than other machines at TAMU that are being
fed from our top level IDD relay clusters.

The problem with geo.gcoos.org is the same as your other machine -
there is no reverse DNS for the machine.  Here are the outputs
from two 'nslookup' invocations, one for forward DNS (name -> IP)
and one for reverse DNS (IP -> name):

% nslookup geo.gcoos.org
Server:         128.117.177.1
Address:        128.117.177.1#53

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:   geo.gcoos.org
Address: 67.207.88.241

% nslookup 67.207.88.241
Server:         128.117.177.1
Address:        128.117.177.1#53

** server can't find 241.88.207.67.in-addr.arpa.: NXDOMAIN

Are you being told that reverse DNS can not be setup for your
other machine?  And, is the same thing true for this machine?

Cheers,

Tom
