Those servers seem to check if your IP can be reverse-resolved to an internet domain name. If you do have external IP (e.g. not masqueraded by your ISP) then you should have your IP to be written in DNS reverse-lookup tables, ask your ISP to do so or do it yourself if DNS in on your machine. This could help. > Could be my kernel (custom 2.2.19) the source of this problem ? > Please help !
