Good point. It might appear though, based on this example, that SIMS does not cross check the A record that is returned against the connecting IP, only that -some- A record is returned. If true, then SIMS might at least put a check in for obviously bogus A records (in this example, a private IP) and note such. Or are there hidden issues I'm unaware of? Feature request?
