Some domains apparently check to make sure a domain that is trying to connect to them are properly setup or registered. When we try to connect to a remote machine that is configured this way, it does not let us in. The message on one mentions a possible problem with the DNS entry for our host. We are properly registered, however, as far as I know. Any ideas? Mike
