RE: [cobalt-security] Lame Server

Hi,

What this means is that the DNS servers are supposed to have reverse lookup
information, but they don't.  Apparently, the admins on these machine
haven't bothered setting configuring the reverse lookup for their IP
subnets/prefixes.

As an example, nso.cwci.net is authoritative for the 195.44.206.x IP prefix,
but the admin hasn't put in the reverse-lookup information for that prefix.
