It started happening ever since i installed Service Pack 4. Seems like SP4
modifies WINS ip address to name resolution. Reason? who knows...
Anyone knows for sure?

Has anyone picked up on the fact that private (rfc1918) IP addresses
suddenly started resolving to read-rfc1918-for-details.iana.net in the last
few days?
This is affecting my, and other's syslog listings and all my machines on
our
192.168.x.x internal network behind our NAT box and Firewall.
Is this a new decision in the world of TCP/IP that I missed? Also DNS seems
to resolve these addresses as this host name (nslookup) this seems to be
the
seat of the problem, but no one can tell me if this is new.
Though this is probably not a Firewall issue it affects private networks
which are generally behind Firewalls.... Oh I'm not going to try to
motivate
why I posted it here, I just wanted the best brains I knew of to brainstorm
about the problem.

James Smith
