It's an emm alias.  If your master or media servers have multiple NICs, 
they probably also have multiple names.  In this case, you need to tell 
emm which alias correspond to which.  For example, if you have 
foo.stp.example.com and foo.bck.example.com both pointing to the same 
server, you'd define that as an alias.

My guess is that there was a bug in early 6.0 releases that sent the 
data out the wrong interface and it was fixed in MP4, causing the emm 
authentication to fail.  This is just a guess though...

You probably had everything defined properly in the first place.
