I can't pinpoint the cause of this problem so it may not be a masquerading
issue.. however, I've never had this problem before masquerading. Lately
the firewall/masq machine is trying to resolve everything as belonging to
itself. For example, trying to ping/telnet to somedomain.com, the name and
address for somedomain.com.mydomain.com is returned. Which happens to work
because my DNS services provide a wildcard entry to resolve *.mydomain.com
to my IP address, but the result in this case is certainly not what I
wanted. I've never had this happen before and I can't figure out why it
started doing this. If anyone has had this problem or knows the cause, I'd
love to get it fixed.

Thanks,
Brian
