Did you change the PTR record?

The MIT Kerberos code maps name->address->name as a way of trying to 
find the "canonical" name of the host.  (It's the wrong way to go about 
it, but we've got other things to fix in that area, and we'd rather 
wait and go through only one round of breaking things for anyone doing 
"interesting" things with their DNS setups.)
