Hi Mike, re: > Thanks so much for the quick reply. No worries. re: > Yes, I believe our forward and reverse > lookup will still resolve as you indicated, but I will confirm to be sure. Just as an FYI: we have had support inquiries from a few sites recently that were undergoing changes to their subnets, and all felt sure that campus computing would setup forward and reverse DNS correctly. The inquiries we got were from sites where this was not the case, or where new security measures were implemented that ended up blocking outbound traffic to port 388 on remote machines. This, of course, prevent the feed REQUEST(s) from ever making it to us, so the sites stopped being fed. Again, just an FYI...
