This in itself won't fix misconfigured/missing DNS tables, of which I am
convinced you have a few, and re-reading my previously sent message, I
didn't outwardly suggest that you upgrade to fix your problems. I just
answered your question about how difficult it was for us to ugprade, but
then our tables are more or less in order.

Well, I don't think your reverse DNSing is working.
nslookup
server ns3.theonlynet.com
207.201.125.66 

still fails..
