It's a norton anti-virus gateway sitting behind a firewall. Right now, it just hands out it's hostname to the server it's talking to. I'm not even sure we can change the items in question... I'm going to issue a fix to the customer to help him absolve the problem for good in the future.. but now I'll have to set up a static mapping through the firewall and make sure all the hostnames match up as this "new rule" everyone's implementing seems to be quite picky. And that's never a good thing.


Meanwhile, the admin of the system in question already told me this was a set of rules they implemented a couple weeks ago. Thus the reason this one particular route just broke...

I pointed out to him that it does indeed break RFC1123... we'll see how it goes from there.
