Hi Elaine - Unspecified refusal is a deliberately obtuse error so that 
potential hackers will not know why the faliure occurred.

 From the trace you sent, it looks as though all is okay up until the
"admit:" rule. that is where the error occurs. it tries to match the 
hostname to the domain name wildcard and fails.

My guess is that there is no DNS support on your test machine? Try 
replacing *.domain.com with the IP series 10.196.143 fir instance and 
see if that helps.
