i do not think the prob is your machine.  I did the same code to one of my
machines and got this
172.32.29.21
system02

when i do a nslookup i get a different name.

I believe this is because request.getRemoteHost() talks to the actual
machine and asks it name.  Check the machine your are using
request.getRemoteHost() with, to see if it thinks it has a host name.  I bet
it has a different one than it dns name.

What happens when you nslookup the address you're getting from
getRemoteAddr()?
