Hmm that reminds me, I actually ran into a similar bug with the SDAC where
if AMGH sends a use_firstserver=true, the SDAC attempts to access the IP in
reverse (as seen in /var/adm/messages, d.c.b.a is attempted instead of
a.b.c.d).  Haven't had a chance to report it yet, but has anyone else
noticed this issue?
