If necessary, you should be able to make a hosts file entry that points to 
an unused IP address. Networker *insists* that forward AND reverse DNS 
work, for all clients. So if your physical host "updnos400" does not exist 
(as it might not, in the event of a disaster), then you can fake it, using 
a hosts file.
