What does the "nres_gethostbyaddr !=" error mean?

	This message is generating by Sun's resolver libraries and
	it is caused by incorrectly configured Domain Name 
	Server(the server that the resolver libraries are querying
	not necessarily the local Domain Name Server).

	The Domain Name Server probably lacks a reverse map entry for 
	that particular host. 

	Since this "bug" is closely associated with using ypserv,
	Sun has produced a patch to "ypserv" (bug #1039839). 
	Sun supplied a patch 100141-01 to quiet it, but the 
	patched version appears to die silently at random times,
	so Sun now has a new patch, 100141-02. Do not install this
	patch unless you are really getting a lot of these messages.
