Have you checked that you actually set the "ipAddress" option to the DNS
address? (It is misnamed.)

All entries in the datastore are stored in the form of Node References
(the same things you see in the seed files). The addresses are only
strings, and the data is signed so there is no way the strings could get
manipulated after they leave your node. They are resolved every time
they are used to route. If --export returns a reference with the DNS
address, then other nodes are using that.

I'm as convinced as I can be that what you are seeing is a symptom of 
something else.
