Hi All,

This was the winning solution. We had actually tried it
because it seemed like the way that *should* work, but it
didn't - against all logic. We pulled our hair out, got
desparate, asked y'all for help, found a typo, and *poof*,
it works.

So now it correctly resolves those five addresses and claims to
the master of the universe for all else.

Oh, and for the suggestion about just using the IP's for the
web links - it only works to get them to the other servers, once
there they can't login or follow the other links, because they
don't resolve. We'd have to proxy to make that work - and ugh!

So thanks everyone, you've been great,

-ronni
