Well this problem means that the ip's 207.217.126.81-83 can not be reverse looked up. You may want to add the names of the ip's in your /etc/hosts file. Something like this: 207.217.126.81 ns1.earthlink.net ns1 207.218.126.81 ns2.earthlink.net ns2 something along those lines. that should fix the problem.
