amanda@amanda:~$ ping amanda
PING amanda.meadwestvaco.com (170.85.113.24) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from amanda.meadwestvaco.com (170.85.113.24): icmp_seq=1 ttl=63

amanda@amanda:~$ nslookup amanda

Address:        1xx.xx.113.8#53

Name:   amanda.meadwestvaco.com

Also when I do a reun, nothing goes to tape, which I suspect is related.
