Paul, How is your name resolution setup? My first inclination would be that it's DNS too. When you ask your system to verify the remote, it will attempt to reverse the IP to a name. The gethostbyaddr() is telling us that. Look thru how your DNS would function and don't assume anything - verify. Robert - - Robert P.
