Don,

You are using norva as your nameserver. I started using them, and thats
what I get.

Feb 10 16:38:54 wintermute.linuxpron.com icmplogd: ping from
ns-norva.navy.mil [205.56.138.34]
Feb 10 16:38:55 wintermute.linuxpron.com icmplogd: source quench from
ns-norva.navy.mil [205.56.138.34]

Change nameservers if it annoys you. =)
