- As usual Ken got the answer immediately. We had been playing around
- with a Domain Name Server for our Xyplex terminal servers, and that host
- was the one we were using. We have decided to run the DNS on another
- machine, one which people don't run interactive jobs which need an
- X-windows server on.
